Pros

Decent pay and benefits event though my yearly salary was significantly less than new hires. I'm talking 25k less. Overall good work colleagues except for the management.

Cons

Like the title says. Lots of favoritism and nepotism. Easier daily assignments for the favorites. Extremely poor communication between management and the grunts. This resulted in unnecessary amounts of stress projected onto staff while already performing a stressful job. A smooth talker will go a long way with this organization. They will act like your opinions mater but they absolutely do not to them. Even to the point that if they don't like you or your opinions you could be demerited and even skipped on yearly pay increases as I was twice. They completely forgot discussions between lowers and management and even worse will lie to you about what was discussed when prompted again. Anything to make themselves look good. Overall I rate this place a capital F. Do not be fooled by their smoke and mirrors.

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
