Vantaggi
- You get to work on cutting-edge medical technology - There are some really smart, talented, motivated people in engineering working on some cool, novel problems in the CV/ML space - Compensation is very fair for a small startup in Boston (speaking as an engineer)
Svantaggi
- Senior leadership is terribly micro managerial and inexperienced - Untrustworthy CEO tried to give us “bonuses” in the form of stock options that would vest in our fifth year of employment. When I requested cash instead he never delivered despite that it was guaranteed to be cash in my offer letter. - Senior leadership is too afraid to let teams fail and learn which inhibits growth and autonomy - There’s no strong product vision for non-ML engineering - Over-reliance on employees sourced from prestigious schools rather than ones with relevant experience - 30-minute weekly company-wide meetings where every single employee gives a status update are a waste of time and CEO consistently ignores feedback about it
