Pros

If you like a fast paced work environment, this is the place for you. There are tons of opportunities to work your butt off and advance. Additionally, people will notice and give you more opportunities. Salary is fair; insurance is good; commuter benefits are good. Executive team is competent and I like the direction the business is heading, as a whole.

Cons

It is easy to overwork yourself and get burned out. If you're capable and a new problem comes up, you may get drowned with work quickly. It's important to know when to say no. No 401k matching at this time, although I've heard they want to change it in the future. Culture can differ across sites. None of it is bad, per se, but each location definitely works best for a particular mindset and workflow. Executive team sometimes puts their foot in their mouth. It's becoming more apparent the gap between higher and lower levels, which can leave a bad taste if not handled respectfully.

Pros

Form Energy is one of the most innovative, rewarding, and driven companies. The people are some of the smartest I have worked with, and they pride themselves on Diversity and Inclusion. This is reflected by the dynamic teams and seriously motivated employees. They have outstanding benefits, compensation, and the CEO is proven. Like every startup, the values can shift in the execution phase. This can be accompanied by a demanding work environment, but the Managers recognize this and ensure support wherever they can.

Cons

The culture at Form Energy has recently shifted. Accountability is key, but it is apparent that leadership has not provided Managers with support to succeed on certain teams. -Some performance reviews do not provide clear actionable items -Trust amongst other teams has deteriorated due to misinformation -Certain leaders treat employees with contempt rather than positive reinforcement These traits are apparent as several employees have recently separated from the company. Form will succeed, but needs to build a culture unique to themselves to define who they are in the next phase of their success.

Pros

Have met some really great people

Cons

Blatant favoritism that is ignored promotions are not based on merit managers promote based who they like personally and not on who can get the job done and is more qualified, the pay gap is massive as some people get paid way more to do the same thing others do and form has done an awful job to address this and take care of its longer term employees thus many have left Colleagues focus more on there career instead of making the team a winner and will throw fellow colleagues under the bus Management only cares about looking good and does not care about helping employees grow in their careers Many great colleagues have left due to their treatment by new management that has come recently
