I worked at Smartcar for several years and was part of the team during a period of early growth and change. In the beginning, it was a great place to take on ownership and work closely with leadership. The product was interesting, the mission felt meaningful, and the team was sharp, kind, and collaborative. One constant throughout my time there was the quality of the people. Smartcar consistently hired thoughtful, driven individuals who genuinely cared about their work and supported each other. The hiring process was one of the best I’ve seen and reflected a respectful, people-first approach that helped attract strong talent.

As the company scaled, though, challenges became more apparent. Internal tools and systems didn’t keep up with growth, expectations rose without added support, and feedback about workload or process issues was often acknowledged but rarely addressed. Communication lost transparency, and shifting priorities were rolled out with little context, making it hard to feel aligned or plan ahead. One of the most disappointing changes was in how HR operated. Early on, they were a strong advocate for employees and helped build trust. Over time, that shifted. HR began to feel more like a corporate mouthpiece and employee concerns were often dismissed or deprioritized. That change deteriorated trust and made it harder to feel supported, especially during periods of uncertainty.
