Vantaggi

It is a startup company.

Svantaggi

It is a startup company. A startup company means they are always losing money. The only way they can keep from going belly up is to get more and more investors. Paychecks are frequently late. Dispatch takes the weekends off, God help you if your truck breaks down on the weekend. Schedules are constantly changing, promises are constantly broken. All live loads. No drop and hooks. All broker loads. No deadhead pay. No APU. No inverters. When I left pay was t $.45 a mile, you could get a bonus up to $.50 a mile, yet somehow freight was always ‘slow’ at the end of the month. I never make the full bonus. They claim to be a technology company, yet I had three different apps I would have to load my paperwork into in order to get paid.

Vantaggi

Starsky makes autonomous trucks that have driven public highways without any human in the truck and will do that even more. Our trucking business has been delivering freight for almost 2 years and will soon be offering regular manned and unmanned trucking capacity. I care very much about the product and the impact of the company where I work and Starsky offers a real solution to important problems in the current trucking industry. This is my first role in autonomous vehicles, but the energy of the industry combined with the great support from the engineers here has helped me learn a ton in a short amount of time. I enjoy working with the tough problems and complex systems involved in robotics and teleoperations. Looking at the market today I can't see many other places where my learning and opportunity might be better that working at Starsky. I can only imagine where we will be in 2020.

Svantaggi

Working at a young company involves tradeoffs that may not be optimal for everybody. At Starsky you will get a significant slice of something that will produce enormous value if we execute on our plan. The roles here are broad and everyone makes important decisions that impact our product and company growth. That said, doing things that have never been done can be unpredictable. If you are looking for work with a narrow focus, large support teams, or an unleveraged equity package this might not be for you.
