Great for HW development, subpar for SW development

Senior software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

+ Unique technology + Exposure to AI and new technologies + Nice immigration visa support (one of the best)

Cons

- SW product development is a joke - They want to learn by trying things out without involving outsiders who have been doing this since 10s of years - They have an integration mindset, which is orthogonal to product development - SW is all about prototypes. The strategy is all about showing prototypes to the world so that others would get inspired and buy more GPUs.
