Pros

* Amazingly smart and accomplished researchers * Access to unparalleled quantities of computing power * Decent freedom to pursue your own ideas so long as they go in the required direction

Cons

* This is a research shop, no interest in real-world application, only publishing papers * Surprisingly bureaucratic and a clique based culture, much less open than Google

Pros

The people you get to work with is the biggest pro. DeepMind is generous with lots of benefits & a great pay package, but nothing really beats being able to work with kind and interesting people.

Cons

There's a bit of a "cliquely" culture - those who have been at DeepMind for longest and/or who are extroverted benefit substantially from their positions & networks. It is the most significant barrier (in my opinion) to advancing the equity & inclusion pieces at DeepMind. There are also inconsistencies with how the (supposedly) mandatory 3:2 hybrid work week is upheld.

Pros

World class colleagues that are all great collaborators Right amount of freedom to experiment Excellent knowledge sharing and access to additional training Outstanding compensation

Cons

Crammed workspace - the open office spaces with >100 people can be noisy and we are running out of places to escape to.
