Pros

Explosive growth from 3K at the beginning of 2025 to 6K. Still plenty of opportunities for impact and career development but you need to advocate for yourself and find those opportunities.

Cons

Poor WLB and unclear expectations for promotions. Outgrowing our offices and parking. Benefits being reduced as we grow bigger to prepare for IPO in the coming years.

Business Outlook

Pros

During my time at Anduril, I was enabled, had autonomy, and learned to build the airplane while it was in flight. The company is constantly evolving to be better. Timelines are tight, we failed fast, but usually got it right years before anybody else would have.

Cons

Only come to kick 4$$.
