Pros

- You can advance your career really fast. - Many young and purpose-driven engineers work here. - The CEO will most likely know your name. He will inspire you. - It has a startup vibe. - Unlimited PTO; however, if you get hired through an agency, then you might not get any PTO.

Cons

- There is a high turnover rate for managers and some engineering positions. Many people choose to quit after working a few months or a few years. - Organization structural changes may be frequent. -Job insecurity. Your job literally relies on a few investors. - Managers like to micromanage. Since it is a small company, managers will micro manage every task you do. - Lastly, there are a few cliques. This is not really a big deal until your manager belongs to one of these cliques.

Not an ethical company

Pros

Yeah yeah yeah the concept is cool and you get to work on “hyperloop”

Cons

Leadership has no idea what they are doing, the change of the ceo caused a series of VP quittings and that’s when everyone started to fight for those empty positions, and those who are more “dear” to the new ceo became the new leaders, a domino of people and engineers leaving after that and still ongoing. The company has a very low morale and ethics and has no respect for employees. Diversity is very low. There is huge amount of bureaucracy going on and people in the advertising teams get more recognition than engineers. Politics to the roof. They hired many people for LA campus and relocated them to Nevada after a few months. Unhappy employees in every team. Money wasted on unnecessary stuff. No career growth. Bad culture, no opportunity to learn. Organizational changes happening every quarter. Lots of overlapping hence fighting managers. They keep hiring more and more because people are leaving more and more.
