Isolating environment for under-represented engineers
Pros
Location near Santa Monica pier, good insurance coverage, 401k matching
Cons
Company claims to be about sustainability and talks a lot about diversity, equity, and inclusion, but neither of these messages turned out to be true. The prime goal is money, and greenwashing and DEI talk seemed to be for show. Deep organizational problems with systemic sexism and the owners are big on hiring a "diverse" team without doing anything about the equity and inclusion parts of the equation. Trainings and education on DEI for the entire company were promised and not delivered, and the result is that the people most likely to experience microagressions (women and other underrepresented engineers) will experience them on a daily basis - leading to an ultimate sense of isolation as the standard space engineering men make all of the important decisions.
