      Pros

      Visionary CEO. Collaborative culture. Great teammates.

      Cons

      Minor: lots of work (also a good thing!), but a lot less stress than most companies due to the collaborative working environment.

      Thank you for sharing your review. And thank you for being a part of the Rivian journey for over 3 years! Totally take your feedback as we build out our teams and ensure roles and responsibilities are clear and decision making is pushed further down in to the organization. Your recommendation on perfectionism is well noted. In some areas, e.g. safety, we will never compromise - but, in other areas, waiting for perfection can be the enemy of progress. Thanks again, Helen , Chief People Officer

      Pros

      Rivian is the best part of every job I ever had... X10. There is an infectious buzz in every office (a buzz I'm missing during our Shelter in Place COVID era!). At first I thought it was a "honeymoon" stage - but it's not. People at Rivian LOVE the product! The excitement about what we are embarking upon is obvious. The ability to make an impact is immense – I believe this is what makes working here the most exciting. RJ often says "We are building a truck while we are driving it". We are building processes, tools, organizations, programs... and amazing EV's – thoughtfully and with purpose! Being part of this foundation is extremely exciting. To be part of an organization that is transparent, diverse, smart, opinionated (yet respectful) and challenging (in all the good ways – ways that foster innovation) leaves me feeling extremely grateful and humbled.

      Cons

      With a company ramping at the rate we are, and driving towards launch, the only constant is change. This isn't a con to me, but it may be to some that don't embrace change and realize that it's part of the evolution of a company and product.
