Q&A With Swift Navigation Employees

Meilleure réponse des employés

Swift takes deliberate steps to ensure that the office environment is conducive to engineering work and concentration in general. Management, engineers, and everyone else know all about "flow" and as a result try to structure spaces and schedule meetings to allow engineers (and others) to concentrate.

Awesome - people put their heads down and work and people are considerate of those who are working. But there's a lot of opportunity to collaborate, converse, joke and sometimes party, and that keeps the place from being a morgue.

The office environment is great. We have a very diverse culture. Many languages are spoken and it's fun to get to know people from all over the world. We do a lot of fun things as a team, like frequent team lunches, happy hours, hackathons, outings (sailing, skiing, bowling, hiking, rock climbing, running) and celebrations for milestones, birthdays and holidays.

A solid team of people who are working to solve hard hardware and software problems to bring high precision GPS to autonomous vehicle operation. The median age is a bit higher than many startups as we deep experience in the areas we are tackling.

I get and am asked to give feedback often. I have weekly one-on-ones with my manager and the manager of the team I work with. I also have a monthly one-on-one with the CEO of the company where I'm asked for feedback on the company, job, manager, executive team etc.

Yearly reviews with quarterly check-ins on major goals. Most mgrs have weekly 1:1s with all their team members where they solicit feedback on how they are doing, what can they do to make their engineer's lives better, and provide guidance to their engineers on how to achieve the goals they have established for themselves.
