Vantaggi
The mission of the company to use robotics to make the world safer is admirable and something people can rally behind. Lots of flexibility in work hours and location. Fast moving market. Constant change provides options to gain new and interesting experience, and lots of space to make your role what you want it to be. The OTTO foundational technology is strong.
Svantaggi
The CEO's inability to hire and integrate senior leaders, lead the leadership team to alignment, and support teams through transitions in executives has trickled down through the entire organization and eroded morale, and has caused chaos on most teams. High turnover and people not working effectively is the result. Toxic relationships have developed between several leaders and the rest of the company, as they are very driven but seem to lack empathy and understanding of how to bring people around to their perspective rather than yelling and making demands. At this point I have seen this happen across most teams. Information transfer between teams is abysmal at best - engineering has built a product that works a certain way, but the teams in-field don't have the information they need to execute successfully. Executives are seemingly untouchable, HR complaints have been unacknowledged or are brushed off.
