Pros

Good technology that could really serve in the energy sector if the initial fuel source is available (e.g. natural gas)

Cons

Top-down culture with an overly arrogant leadership team. Decisions are made without consulting subject matter experts and are expected to be executed without question. The workplace does not feel secure, with frequent layoffs occurring without clear communication or justification. There are also serious concerns regarding discrimination based on gender and ethnicity.

Pros

A mature start up feel. No two days are the same, lots of interesting projects to work on and given the opportunity to have an impact The people are a highlight. Teams are collaborative, driven, and full of smart individuals who are genuinely invested in what they’re building. There’s a strong sense of ownership, and you’re given the opportunity to contribute in a meaningful way regardless of level.

Cons

There really are not any major cons so far. It is 5 days in office. And whilst I am local and enjoy coming in a little flexibility would be nice. That said there's a great gym, good restaurant and free EV charging so I like being here!
