Pros

- The topic of work (autonomous driving) is exciting! - Some great engineers at the lower level to work with and learn from - great money (while it lasts)

Cons

- Leadership is building an automotive company (from hierarchy), not a tech firm - Teams work very isolated from each other creating non-stop blockers hindering work - Lack of uniform processes and standards lead to every engineer from level 1 to 4 needing to become an expert in everything. Great for learning, but bad for moving forward as a company

Pros

Working at Torc has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my career. The technology we're building is genuinely world-changing — autonomous trucking has the potential to transform how goods move across the country, and being part of that mission makes the work feel meaningful every single day. The pace is fast, which keeps things engaging. There's always something new to tackle, and the environment pushes you to grow quickly. If you thrive on momentum and like seeing your contributions matter, you'll feel right at home here. One thing that stands out is the flexibility around work hours. It's clear that leadership trusts employees to get the job done without micromanaging when or how you do it. That kind of autonomy makes a real difference for work-life balance.

Cons

The fast pace isn't for everyone — be ready to hit the ground running
