Pros

Good product conceptualization. Cutting edge technology. Stable funding from well-known player in the automotive sector.

Cons

Chaotic workplace. Many veterans are either leaving or are being terminated. Manifestedly discriminative policy against some targeted group of employees. Poor communication between teams which results in lot of redundancy in the software ecosystem. Fat layer of incompetent, unqualified people in the middle and top management. Many mid-level managers make whimsical decisions in terms of project management. Scene understanding team is headed by someone with no knowledge of scene understanding and zero leadership and management skill. There are loud-mouths in many teams who generally dominate team meetings. These loud-mouths mostly dictate design choices. Top management is practically clueless about ground level proceedings. Favoritism and nepotism are very much present in the system. HR is worthless and only exist as the mouthpiece of the management.

Pros

Decent pay and benefits event though my yearly salary was significantly less than new hires. I'm talking 25k less. Overall good work colleagues except for the management.

Cons

Like the title says. Lots of favoritism and nepotism. Easier daily assignments for the favorites. Extremely poor communication between management and the grunts. This resulted in unnecessary amounts of stress projected onto staff while already performing a stressful job. A smooth talker will go a long way with this organization. They will act like your opinions mater but they absolutely do not to them. Even to the point that if they don't like you or your opinions you could be demerited and even skipped on yearly pay increases as I was twice. They completely forgot discussions between lowers and management and even worse will lie to you about what was discussed when prompted again. Anything to make themselves look good. Overall I rate this place a capital F. Do not be fooled by their smoke and mirrors.
