Embark Trucks Reviews

Well-run company that is financially stable due to good budgeting and execution, and offers great career growth opportunities. This is a company where you can see a team working together day-in and day-out to support each and every member of the team, in a collective effort to bring autonomous trucking to commercialization.

Excellent culture. People are cheerful, humble and overall seem to be excited about their work. I actually get to take vacation here unlike other “unlimited vacay” places and it really helps manage and prevent burnout. The remote policy is great, but the office is pretty good too, with catered lunch, makes me feel like I’m missing out a bit. The work is challenging and rewarding. There’s a decent amount of senior people who are good mentors. The stack I work with is pretty modern, I had to work with some gnarly ancient libraries in this industry. We are also allowed to do short spikes and explore new/different tech and submit proposals. Meetings are kept to a minimum, some teams have no meeting days that are for the most part respected, standup is a blend of video calls and async slack updates. I may have a single day that’s meeting heavy over the course of two quarters. As an IC I get plenty of focus time. Management processes are very pragmatic, and I seldom feel like I’m doing something boring and bureaucratic.
