Pros

The team's really great, and everyone's working on some pretty interesting stuff. It's nice to see that we're moving in the right direction. Despite the usual ups and downs you'd expect in a growing company, Wayve seems to have things under control. It's like we've figured out what's important and are keeping our focus there, which is pretty cool compared to the usual chaos at similar places

Cons

It's kind of unclear how the company decides on salaries. It's not really transparent, which makes you wonder how fair it is. When it comes to fun stuff like team outings or social events, we don't seem to have as much budget as other places. This makes it a bit tough to plan cool activities without worrying about the cost. Moving up in the company or getting a raise can be pretty tricky. It feels like all the big decisions are made higher up, so our direct managers don't have much say. This means we end up trying to meet some specific requirements that don't always line up with our day-to-day work.

Pros

- People. Helpful, great to work with. - Work-life balance (when out of crunches) - A good office - Flexible working style (in-office or hybrid)

Cons

- No motivation from management (no bonuses, feedback is declined, many people just work for the visas). - As iterated in previous reviews, it's not an engineering company. Software tasks are not interesting even for people coming from automotive background - No option to progress in career. There are no raises in engineering department

Thank you for taking the time to share this and for reflecting honestly on your experience at Wayve. We’re glad to hear your positive comments about the people, flexibility, and working environment, that sense of being supported by colleagues really matters to us. At the same time, we take your feedback on management, motivation, and career progression seriously. Where expectations around feedback, growth, or recognition weren’t met, that’s on us. Since your time here, we’ve been putting more focus into clearer progression frameworks, more consistent feedback cycles, and better support for managers, particularly in engineering teams. We know there’s still work to do, and feedback like this helps highlight where we need to keep improving. Thank you again for sharing your perspective! – Wayve Team
