Pros

I love working at DeepMind because of the dedication to a unifying mission that is going to make the world a better place. Colleagues at DeepMind are kind, caring, and high-caliber. It is great working with so many people who love what they do and do it excellently. The pay and benefits are more than fair. Ultimately though, the culture and community are what keeps me at DeepMind.

Cons

Decision-making isn't always perfect due to our highly collaborative environment, but it is something that's improving. The interview process can feel a bit intense as a candidate because of the care taken with each hire.

Pros

* DeepMind's laser focus on its long-term ambitious AGI mission makes it feel like a genuine moonshot. * DeepMind values include "Kind" and "Collaborative", and these (along with other 3 values) are taken very seriously. * High standard for good management, and amazing support for managers to learn and grow. Fantastic partnerships across all roles -- scientists, engineers, PgX, People and Culture, ops -- make all projects feel like true team efforts. * The internal research presentations make me feel like I'm living in a dream. My coworkers are amazingly talented and we're working in an amazing world of AI. * After moving to London my starting pay was a fair chunk below my Silicon Valley paycheck. However, the pay and benefits have grown steadily and I feel like I am fairly rewarded.

Cons

* London (headquarters) is an amazing city, but giant cities aren't everyone. * We are all still working to address a culture of trying to make things perfect before sharing them, a bad habit we have which reduces our iterative improvement rate. * The enormous learning curve and amazing coworkers can sometimes leave me feeling like I'm the imposter. This is a well-known issue and we're working on it.
