Pros

Multicultural environment with engineers recruited from around the world. Marketing department is definitely the best department in ZeroAvia.

Cons

-Company had very ambitious plans that will not be met on the timelines claimed on the press, especially those regarding certifications. - There is a very high turnover in the last months with a relevant bleed of highly skilled workforce joining competitors with more solid balance sheet and finances. - There have been several people holding senior positions at C-suite level that left the organization after the last capital rise. This is not promising for the near future - Senior and middle management had been responsible of harassment episodes and weird dismissals covered up by private financial settlements and very poor severance packages. Mercurial and incompetent leadership. Some people from the middle management do not have the technical competency and experience to hold and manage workforce under their responsibility. This slow down the roll-out of the overall work within the organization - Flashy statements about powertrain capabilities that do not find the related counterpart in the reality.

Thank you for your feedback. As with any business, employees will leave due to cultural fit, performance issues or to pursue other exciting goals. Our turnover remains below the average for the engineering sector. For clarity, we have no harassment cases. ZeroAvia is proud of its technical advancements and has recently been voted Times No1 Green Tech Company. This is a great endorsement of what we have achieved.
