Pros

Excellent company culture. I completely trust the leadership team and get along well with all coworkers. Lots to learn and very little micro-management by superiors.

Cons

Standards are very high and the workload is immense. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but something to consider as a prospective applicant. This is NOT and old-school, slow, bureaucratic, legacy auto maker. Rivian, much like Tesla, moves quickly and requires employees to be flexible, patient, and intelligent. This is NOT a company to "rest and vest".

Pros

- Great exposure to the product - Amazing teammates, boots on the ground collaboration - Onboarding is really well done - they take this part seriously and I appreciate that.

Cons

- Limited growth - Constantly worried whether your department is getting laid off. - I've worked at plenty of other startups and EV companies and this one is by far the worst. - Zero job security unless you're JR
