Pros

Pyka has an incredibly supportive culture and smart leadership. They set realistic stretch goals and move quickly to reset as necessary. In addition to a progressive professional environment, we fit in a bit of fun too! The entire team is outstanding - exceptional in their specialties, making the work satisfying and the lunch conversations brilliant!

Cons

We are going through a period of growth from prototype to production, which means the workload is pretty heavy while we fill in the gaps with new personnel. This is solvable and we're not expected to work crazy hours, but it adds another dimension to an otherwise well-balanced work load.

Pros

Pyka manages to be a fast-paced and exciting startup with loads of technical challenges to tackle, while still investing the time in its culture and its people personal and professional growth. A few pros: - Fast-paced "full-stack" hardware development, from design to (flight!) testing: everything that you work on will be tested in flight in a matter of weeks - Small, talented, enthusiast and agile team: great communication and transparency from management, and true respect for each other's time and ideas, with no ego or power play - Working towards clean aviation - Cool engineering product that is solidly anchored in business needs: the goal is not constantly shifting, we are working on what we think is the quickest solution to an existing problem - Focus and realism: good assessment of what can and should be outsourced. We only spend time on where we are actually creating value - Work-life balance and happy employees

Cons

- Typical startup and operational roller-coastering: this is aviation, so we are also subject to weather and regulatory constraints
