Toxic culture - Recensione dipendente - Software Engineer presso Waymo

Compensation: the stocks are worthless so you only have base salary. The company's goal is not making revenue. It blows off every possibility of profitable business - L2&L3 and trucking due to poor business decisions. It is working on L4 robotaxi only to satisfy someone's ego. Work life balance: the company implicitly expects you to work 100+ h per week. You need to work on short term projects all over the year with deadlines every 1-2 month. You will barely have chance to sleep 1 week before each deadline. Culture: toxic. The company wants you to feel insecure so you work harder. And it's famous for really bad people managers.
