Finally a startup company that really prioritizes on having the right work culture
Pros
- Focus on building the right startup culture which means hiring the right people (Rivian 101)! - Focus on quality versus quantity - Focus on not having silos. The CEO is transparent with the employees. - There is no hierarchy where one person makes all the decisions. Leadership is supportive and interact with everyone from experienced to entry-level engineers. - Collaboration with other teams is encouraged which allows for immense learning and solving problems with a holistic approach - Get to work on some REALLY COOL and innovative products and ideas
Cons
- Of course, work-life balance is not the greatest. Rivian offers unlimited vacation days to help with this. - Finding the right balance between not enough processes versus too many processes. This is something Rivian is building as the company matures. These cons are true for any startup. Startups are a challenging environment! If you don't feel challenged, you will not progress.
