Pros

Company has novel tech with broad market applications. True dual use technology with flagship customers to back it up on both sides. Smart teammates and above-market comp especially for technical roles.

Cons

Typically volatility that comes with working for a startup. It’s definitely not for everyone; if looking for process stability like you’d find in a larger more established company, look elsewhere.

Pros

- Tons of very smart people working on a very hard problem. - I never felt like the smartest person in a meeting

Cons

- Company is leaning heavily into defense work. - Leadership has “changed directions” several times in the last year. Employees are getting whiplash.
