Pros

Talented engineering team, fast-paced development, small group size allows for large individual responsibility.

Cons

Increased bureaucracy due to public stock offering. Moving from experimental to production vehicles has increased paperwork and reduced process efficiency. Long commute to Mojave, CA from urbanized areas. Some pressure on individuals due to small team sizes.

People are friendly, and work environment is clean.

Slowly taking away employee's benefit like WFH and required 50 hrs/week. Management is conflicting with each other and made bad decision because of schedule driven or lack of technical knowledge.
