Best company I've ever worked for - Recensione dipendente - Lead UI/UX Designer presso Allen Institute for AI

Cutting-edge AI research, the right balance between research and applications.

No complaints whatsoever! The long-term vision is very promising.

Excellent work/life balance, decent pay, free snacks

Look for what *meaningful* projects and research have come out of Ai2 in the last two years. They used to be research and academia focused and made AI for the common good a priority. When they changed CEOs they became product focused and went all-in on LLMs. Internally their structure is extremely disorganized and chaotic and they're quietly laying people off. They have a few projects, like EarthRanger, that have a measurable impact in the world but EarthRanger didn't originate in Ai2 and doesn't utilize AI.
