Pros

The problem space is very interesting yet likely achievable. These robots have the potential to actually get deployed, while AV on public roads a long way off.

Cons

Engineering is stagnant because they only hire junior engineers. The only seniors you work with have been for 10+ years, so there is no cross pollination of ideas from the outside. The infrastructure and tooling is really bad. Most engineers spend 50% of they day wondering why local builds are broken or backing out code because there is no integration testing.

Pros

*Big brand on my resume which is always great *Plenty of competent engineers and the standard for engineering is also quiet high which made me work harder *Some of the people you meet are incredibly nice and happy to help you with anything

Cons

*Some sense of bureaucracy *Some management can feel strongly opinionated *Some management can lack involvement during the experience *Location is inconvenient; Living situation is not the nicest + expensive and commuting would result in a larger cost of living plus a larger time sacrifice ***This review reflects my experience and is not reflective of other interns in other teams ***I did have failures to meet deadlines and suffered largely due to this which in turn effected the rest of my internship and related performance
