No work-life balance or respect for employees

Senior engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- Great product - Stock potential - A lot of talented people around - A lot of learning

Cons

- Low pay - Indecent stock disparity between management and engineers - recent additions to leadership get 500k-1M shares while engineers get 5k. And then they tell you to come work 24/7 because you'll be able to cash out on shares. - Leadership unresponsive, completely disconnected from reality. - CEO goes on power trips and tries to rule by fear. - If the CEO didn't see you on Sunday, you don't belong here. Complete disrespect for employees, and attendance is used as the only metric. - No work from home allowed - No 401k matching (even post-funding) - Crazy "no PTO" policies that go on forever. - They send you a nice "Lucid wellness" postcard telling you to "have fun" while asking you to be in the office 24/7.
