Pros

- The company is positioned for success in the AI/ML industry because of not only our products, but our team as well. - There is consistent encouragement from all levels of the organization to get involved, learn about AI/ML, increase your responsibility, and take ownership of key projects both within teams and cross-functionally - We have a super high bar for talent means working with the best people in their field across the globe each and every day. - We consistently recognize and celebrate good work. - Fair compensation and new benefits, including 3 annual company shut down weeks, allow me to focus on the job at hand, knowing that my family and I am taken care of.

Cons

- We work really hard and everyone wants to succeed, so sometimes it's hard to find the perfect time to unplug/recharge...so you have to pick a period of time to rest and stick with it.

Pros

As a startup, you’ll have a chance to wear several hats and do a-lot of different stuff.

Cons

Management is super inexperienced! Many irrational and impulsive decisions. They fire people all the time for no apparent reasons which adds stress on everyone else. No work life balance. The CEO is a part of every single decision, and everyone has to OBEY or else they are fired. They can’t care less about the quality of your work. Things are messy, overwhelming and most of the time frustrating to cope with.

I really appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback because this is the only way that we can improve our company and our culture. Being at a startup is always an exciting challenge! Here at Grid.ai, we create opportunities for people to have a seat at the table and step up as leaders as well. We have actively invested in executive coaching, management training, and internal/external mentorship to help people at all levels of the organization continue to grow. When someone is not meeting expectations, we provide that feedback in real-time and ensure that they have access to the resources they need to turn it around: fairness is a cornerstone of our performance philosophy. Sometimes we have to make difficult decisions on employee performance, and that's something that we take very seriously. We wish you had a better experience here and are always here to connect. We can't thank you enough for being part of our journey. Best of luck as you embark on yours! -Alex, Head of People & Operations
