Form Energy is one of the leading new technology companies in the clean energy industry, and the excitement, passion, and determination is palpable every day in the office. The team acknowledges that our goals are extremely ambitious and we are trying to do something never done before, but each team member approaches this reality with a humble and collaborative mindset. I am constantly impressed by how intelligent and experienced my teammates are, but almost everyone takes the time to ask about what's going on outside of work and to celebrate each other's wins. As someone early in my career, I feel very lucky to have landed at a company with inspiring leadership, a compelling mission and technology, and a supportive team.
Cons
Form Energy is moving fast to deploy a brand new technology to confront the urgent problems of climate change, and working at Form can be intense and demanding proportional to the magnitude of the challenge. Things can move and change quickly, and it definitely feels like a start-up in that some systems are still working out the kinks.
The company is growing and evolving incredibly quickly so it's nearly impossible to get bored here. Everyone is super kind and wants to help out the people around them as much as they can. The focus on people, culture, and diversity is unparalleled, and it creates an amazing place to come into work every day.
Cons
Since the company is growing so quickly it can be hard to keep up with changes, new job functions, and which team is responsible for what. Things change quickly and aren't always well communicated, so there's a lot of reacting to major changes at the last second.
