Pros

Strong vision and a well engineered product.

Cons

I have to agree with the comments made about Lucid Motors and the leadership team. Many members of the leadership team are incompetent and struggle with decision making. The CEO is nothing more than an ornament. The CTO, who is a tyrant and a megalomaniac, runs the day-to-day operations. He is never satisfied with almost anything anyone does. He is known for his bigotry and acts of anger. He chooses to berate employees in front of their peers and will stomp his feet (literally) until he gets what he wants. There has never been a functioning HR department during my time here. They are known to "sweep" things under the rug, especially if it involves complaints regarding harassment and discrimination. Recently there has been an uptick in the turn over rate across the organization. I have witnessed several people recently resign or get terminated. There was even a new employee who "left for lunch" on their third day and never returned.

Pros

Great learning opportunities for people in early career. Lots of career growth opportunities if you perform well. Most engineers are very knowledgeable, friendly and collaborative and willing to work as a team. SET team are usually bonded together well. I really enjoyed working with a lot of CFT team at Lucid.

Cons

Executive leadership is not competitive. Consistent priority shift. Lack of transparency to employees. Too many processes just for processes, need robust but efficient process.
