Growing company, excellent team - Recensione dipendente - Deep Learning Research Engineer presso Plumerai

Extreme quantized deep learning on edge is an interesting topic to work on, however in my opinion, BNNs (the main focus of this company) are overvalued and in practice offer no real competitive advantage over other techniques.

The executive team in this company are the most arrogant, inexperienced and toxic people that I have to ever deal with in my entire career. Fresh out of college with no experience in industry nor academia but with massive childish ego. They have absolutely no moral compass and manage the company however they like as long as it is not illegal and there are no personal ramifications. In case you are really desperate for a job and decided to accept an offer from this company, pay a lot of attention to the details in the contract, certainly do not sign the default contract which requires you to waive your moral rights over your work. There have been cases of plagiarism which they fired an employee and claimed the authorship of his work for themselves.

- The team is great, some of the nicest people I’ve worked with, which is important in a small company. Everybody is in it together, and motivated to do well. - The research and tech is genuinely exciting and novel. - Because the team is small there are lots of opportunities to propose and try new ideas, influence future directions, and have a big impact.

- A smaller company means fewer resources; you end up having to do important things that are outside your competencies/job description because there’s no one else to do them. - When I first joined, communication from management wasn’t as good as it should be, though that got better over the two years I was there.
