Pros

Cons outweigh any possible pros.

Cons

Extremely toxic workplace, weak management who are entirely fake and double minded. If you don’t “go with the program” they will fire you, they will find a way. I never felt safe here. An office full of money hungry actors. There’s a reason why the competition has surpassed this company by leaps and bounds. Dishonest, unethical company, avoid at all costs.

Pros

Great food, good work-life balance, financial security at least for the time being with Amazon acquisition

Cons

The company built its reputation on its urban self-driving capabilities. The company has been experiencing growing pain as the size doubled last year. Generally speaking it does not have good strong leaders for a young, inexperienced team. Often you see arrogant attitude from management, who are weak technically but strong in opinions as they view disagreement as a challenge to their authority.

Pros

Free lunch, snacks. Pay was alright, but we’re risking our lives testing these vehicles so could be better.

Cons

No life/work balance. Favoritism with instructors/leads. Management letting things “slide” for those they favored although they’re doing the same thing others were/are getting fired for. “Safety” is priority then half the staff needs to be terminated. The environment is toxic & everyone is running around trying or wanting to “one-up” the other or be the next best thing and it was exhausting to be around as a full time employee or should I say “contractor”. A company that preaches about moral & ethics yet consistently contradicts itself. If you miss middle/high school and love drama/pettiness you may enjoy working here. After the former senior director was let go and this new guy arrived, things seemed to be going downhill as far as culture. Glad I received the experience, but WILL NOT miss it.
