Had a great time - Recensione dipendente - Research Associate presso Pinecone Systems

Startup environment and lot of independence

Blah blah blah blah blah

Once upon a time, Pinecone was a scrappy startup with great researchers and a superior, category-defining product.

Then the AI boom happened and they raised a lot of money on the basis of high user numbers. But none of these users wanted to pay the high prices necessary to generate profits that could repay the shareholders. Pinecone began hiring people who specialized in downsizing, then laid off most of their employees. Now, few if any of the original staff remain. Best avoided.
