RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at Palantir Technologies full-time for more than a year
Pros
* People are very smart * There is room to grow. It's not uncommon to see people who have been in the company for 1-2 years becoming Leads. * Huge responsibilities from day 1. * "Choose your own adventure" -> You can create your own growth path in the company if you see the need for it. For example, if you work on X product/customer but you see that there is a need to develop another product, you can start working on that without an issue (as long as you don't jeopardize your other role) * D&I is big here. You can get as involved as you want with this and that's awesome! * Overall, this is an amazing company. I love it.
Cons
Too much autonomy at times (this is also a pro, but being independent and figuring out things on your own is not for everyone)
