High growth, important mission - President Saildrone Employee Review

Saildrone is a fast paced and exciting place to work, and as the leader in its industry breaking new ground every day. Where else can you sail your design into a hurricane and see it come out the other side unscathed? The company is made up of passionate, talented people and has a 'show me' culture that focuses on building things and testing them in the real world.

Saildrone is in its awkward teenage years after going through a significant growth spurt. Lots of new people trying to find their place and contribute to the many projects in flight. If you are looking for a place where every week is like the last it is probably not for you. If you want somewhere where you learn something new every day it is a great ride!

Unique product(USV), great missions. Great location It’s for you if you enjoy unpredictable working style.

Poor management and leadership Low pay and lack of transparency High politics within the teams, even if you perform, job is not guaranteed. No 401 K match Lack of planning for turnover which impacts performance and morale of the team
