Pros

Good people, hard working middle management that genuinely know how to run the business, good pay, solid technical performance and IP if management would get out of the way.

Cons

Weak leadership team. Needs to be taken over. Easily fixed with proper leadership. Upper management is asking us to run faster…but they just kneecapped us. They change strategy every month and don’t have experience running companies that are not R and D small businesses. No idea how to make a profit or hold a strategy. Make decisions based on ego and bluster…not talent or logic or efficiency. I’ve never seen a company waste so much money on just flip flopping between decisions.

Pros

Working at Torc has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my career. The technology we're building is genuinely world-changing — autonomous trucking has the potential to transform how goods move across the country, and being part of that mission makes the work feel meaningful every single day. The pace is fast, which keeps things engaging. There's always something new to tackle, and the environment pushes you to grow quickly. If you thrive on momentum and like seeing your contributions matter, you'll feel right at home here. One thing that stands out is the flexibility around work hours. It's clear that leadership trusts employees to get the job done without micromanaging when or how you do it. That kind of autonomy makes a real difference for work-life balance.

Cons

The fast pace isn't for everyone — be ready to hit the ground running
