      Pros

      You mostly get the same benefits as Google employees, although a little reduced in some ways. Waymo is trying to distance itself from Google, so I only see these benefits getting reduced further if not eliminated in the future.

      Cons

      - Weak and uninspiring leadership at all levels. - Your experience can vary quite a bit depending on which team you are on. - The company seems to care more about ERGs and DEI (EID in Waymo speak) than building an actual self-driving vehicle. - Internal systems are messy and disorganized. - Inconsistencies in management, communication, and internal tool use from team-to-team. Waymo can't even get everyone too use the acronym ADV (Autonomous Driving Vehicle) over SDV (Self Driving Vehicle) even after committing itself to stop using the SDV nomenclature years ago. - Very difficult to move around internally. - Poor work/life balance. This has consistently been a complaint for years.

      Pros

      Easy pay, food people are blue collar workers

      Cons

      The management behind the current is fake, phony, liars, they put good people in bad positions. They promised pay, bonus, and move the goal posts. Make you work on days, take days off away from you. Don't care about workers.
