Business Outlook

Pros

Working with great minds and cutting edge products. Company has high standards, but is not stressful. People are expected mostly to manage their own workloads and to be self-starters.

Cons

I was hired on contract with the provision to be converted after one year to permanent full-time. That never came. Be very careful, there are folks there that have been on contract for 3 or more years. Magic Leap gets away with not paying them benefits and time off. It's really deceitful and no reason for using people like that. Be aware. I left and moved to Texas for a better full-time opportunity where I can plan my life financially better.
