i n t e g r i t y

Review from Engineering Dept

They seem to have a cohesive and strong vision for both the company product and culture. It's really easy to get on board with such a passionate team,

Review from Engineering Dept

They're generally very active and thoughtful people. I think they abide by "if there's a problem, fix it" pretty well, it makes for a good employee experience.

$150 assembly credit and great compensation

Review from Engineering Dept

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Compensation Reviews

I was expecting a raise when I switched into PM. I think it's fine that I didn't get one - it's just that there was no expectations set beforehand. I want to work really hard to establish myself in my new role and earn my raise.

no clear path forward to next career level, and I won't get the compensation I want without it

We drove away all our experienced engineers, and now the few we have with knowledge are swamped with work and onboarding new people.
