Pros

Great people, great gym, cool car.

Cons

Studio and engineering have too much power often at expense of spending money on dumb stuff. Makes finance and purchasing tough to be in. You need a CEO focused on profitability in manufacturing not making every customer happy.Stock compensation is very limited.

Pros

The work itself is interesting if you’re into EVs, and the product is genuinely impressive on paper. Decent pay on entry.

Cons

The “startup energy” pitch is completely false advertising. Nearly every person in a decision making role came from a legacy OEM think Mercedes, BMW, Audi and they brought every slow, bureaucratic, politically charged habit with them. The result is a company that moves at legacy speed while pretending it’s moving fast. The Bay Area location is almost cosmetic. The actual workforce is heavily visa dependent, which creates real cultural fragmentation people aren’t here because they believe in the mission, they’re here because their visa is tied to the job. That affects collaboration, communication, and cohesion in ways that are hard to ignore day to day. Management is a revolving door. People move roles constantly musical chairs is the right metaphor. Nobody owns anything long enough to be accountable for it. Projects stall, priorities shift, and institutional knowledge evaporates. Budget priorities are baffling. Money gets burned on things that don’t matter while the actual important infrastructure, tooling, or resources get underfunded or ignored entirely. Work life balance exists in theory but the dysfunction means you’re constantly compensating for organizational chaos.
