Pros

No longer many -- unless you are in desperation of working on EVs

Cons

The company seems pretty lost going in circles aimlessly changing directions on almost a daily basis. US location has lost nearly all mid- to senior management and large number of personnel along with it in less than a year. Mothership is applying increasing amounts of pressure to solve all the damage over last 4 years at once but without providing any clear direction. Problems of past, present and future projects are all attempted to be figured out all at once in random order. Perpetual start-up style mode means a free-for-all: lack of clear requirements, duplicated efforts by multiple teams, architectural holes, decisions are made by wrong teams, those that don't have expertise, or no decisions made at all. Unclear constraints lead to projects worked on by entire teams for many months then completely thrown away. Then those team can be deemed ineffective or redundant and get cut. Efforts to make forward progress made by any team is usually thwarted by someone key leaving and/or task being moved to China. Further, despite this being a public company, financial situation is kept opaque to employees.
