* Good teammates * Smart people * Good pay * Good benefits

Cons

* No growth: Most people get stock at some level. * No transparency: When decided to join Waymo, they told us that there were planning to continue growing and had enough funding for the next couple of years. A few months later many of us got an email that our position had been eliminated. * Good severance package
