IonQ reviews

- Lots to learn as an organization - Many processes are new or not well defined - Many of the business challenges at IonQ are present throughout the quantum information industry or any nascent technology company (complex IP concerns, new product definitions, export control challenges, lots of unknowns, etc)

It turns out that everyone is paid differently, and their stock options are different. My colleagues have salaries up to 50% more than mine and much more stock, there is no structure to pay and you are probably being ripped off. Of course, when you point this out to management, they won't fix it. They don't want your ideas, they only want you to do what they tell you to do. They don't care about customers, they care about management who has an uninformed view of quantum computing customers. They will delay purchasing key system components in order to get a bigger discount, and hold a project back from progressing to save incrementally small amounts of money. There is no bias for action, the CEO likes to "think about things" which means that nothing will get done.
