Pros

Anduril is a company that will give you many opportunities for high ownership. You can walk your own path, as there are many, and drive huge amounts of impact across a multitude of teams and products. This is a great company for those of all experience levels to grow their skills. If you'd rather be siloed in your work, or work a cushy 9-5 while *not* being given ample opportunity to experience and learn from many failures and successes, then this is not the company for you. If you're someone who is highly autonomous and can execute on their work when required, this is your place - we'll quickly recognize these traits early on and it'll be worth it. Come join us, we're building some insanely cool stuff - and we're only expanding upon new areas to explore and experiment with.

Cons

The hours can get ridiculous at times and it does not always come without cost. The compensation model is not competitive, that's not to say the upside potential won't be ridiculous in a few years. We definitely cannot compete with top tech companies when it comes to cutting offers.

Pros

Work with the best and brightest, on sci-fi tech, and actually have to ship it

Cons

The above is nearly impossible by nature of the level of ambition baked into some of our programs, this is not an easy job for anybody no matter your qualifications
