      It's now a disorganized Tesla

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      My direct management is reasonable on demands, personally cares about me, and pleasant to work for. The company still has great potential in a personally fulfilling industry with demonstrated high demand for the product if we can make it work reliably at a reasonable cost. So, I am still hoping my equity will be worth a lot eventually but is it worth the cost to get there?

      Cons

      It's a company founded and originally staffed by a bunch of scientists that are now trying to quickly make a product after the science was proven. I joined around when things started going south in these reviews, and agree with most of the recent ones. I have never worked in such a disorganized, messy, out of touch, and demanding work environment. People are frequently posting/bragging on Slack about how they were working over the weekend or late. It's not clear if the executives are unaware of how things are going at ground level, or ignoring it. Lately there have also been a disconcerting number of people fired. If your area of responsibility happens to fall behind the very aggressive development schedule and you do not fix it immediately you will be shown the door. Many of the newly hired managers and executives are ex-Tesla, and it is showing in the culture.

      Pros

      The company was clearly built with a good foundation. It sounds like there was strong upheld values, focus around process and doing things the right way, and a strong technical product foundation. But from chatting with teammates things seemed to change about 7-8 months ago and have only nose dived in the last two months.

      Cons

      Multiple employees have quit in the last year due to working conditions. Program schedules are compressing. Validation testing is being pushed to the back burner. The company is hiring on fast and throwing new hires onto unstaffed items with no time to onboard and properly learn about the company/technology.
