I was told TRAIL salaries are "non-negotiable" to keep it fair for everyone. After talking to other people offered a spot in the program, I found that their offers were of varying amounts. This caused Rivian to lose a lot of credibility in my eyes. I also received a full-time (non-rotational) offer. The recruiter informed me that I must make a decision within "3 days" as they "only wanted candidates gung-ho about Rivian" and that the org's director would "wonder if I'm using the company just for negotiation." This was for a position I wouldn't start for 6+ months. The fact that Rivian was offering less than the industry standard 2 weeks (let along just 3 days) caused me to lose lots of respect for Rivian as a company. I cannot imagine any person making such an important life decision in so little time. It felt as if I was being pressured to sign before I finished interviewing with other companies. I requested informational phone calls with the manager and director (it was clear neither of them cared about me making a decision within 3 days). Suddenly the pressure from the recruiter disappeared and I was allowed more time to make a decision. I understand Rivian needs to fill spots but the unprofessional attitude by the recruiter very much jaded Rivian in my eyes and certainly had an impact on my final decision.
