Vantaggi
Lucid used to to be a great place to work, the reviews on here show that. There used to be passion, joy, a sense of community. Hard work was valued, you felt that you were contributing to an overall “realistic” goal. Unfortunately the last year has completely crippled the company.
Svantaggi
Hubris (/ˈhjuːbrɪs/ from ancient Greek ὕβρις) describes a personality quality of extreme or foolish pride or dangerous overconfidence,[1] often in combination with (or synonymous with) arrogance. The ultimate downfall of lucid rests solely on the shoulders of its leadership. They exhibit all the negative character traits of Elon with none of the showmanship. The attitude that “we only have to be slightly better than the model S” was prevalent throughout the company. The main leadership is mostly mechanical, they have never valued the software side, and with that all the talent was allowed to walk out the door. Directors would argue that designs were fine even when they were failing in testing at alarming rates. Teams passed off shoddy work hoping that they could re-do it in “alpha continuation” or Beta. How a company conducts business when money is tight shows far more than when the coffers are full, over the past year there has been no effort to boost morale, to retain the best engineers, to make this place like it once was. The attitude from HR has been that if we can’t solve all the problems why even attempt to solve any. At one point we were the company that everyone thought would make it, but now the office is the most depressing it has ever been. It’s empty, entire teams have disappeared, and being spread across 4 different offices makes it feel like there are 10-20 people left that show up to work. Don’t worry guys 6-8 weeks!
