Pyka manages to be a fast-paced and exciting startup with loads of technical challenges to tackle, while still investing the time in its culture and its people personal and professional growth.
A few pros:
- Fast-paced "full-stack" hardware development, from design to (flight!) testing: everything that you work on will be tested in flight in a matter of weeks
- Small, talented, enthusiast and agile team: great communication and transparency from management, and true respect for each other's time and ideas, with no ego or power play
- Working towards clean aviation
- Cool engineering product that is solidly anchored in business needs: the goal is not constantly shifting, we are working on what we think is the quickest solution to an existing problem
- Focus and realism: good assessment of what can and should be outsourced. We only spend time on where we are actually creating value
- Work-life balance and happy employees
Cons
- Typical startup and operational roller-coastering: this is aviation, so we are also subject to weather and regulatory constraints
- Pyka has the best people and culture I have seen in a very long time
- The work here is fun, even when overwhelming
- Catered individual lunches every day
- Dogs in the office
Cons
- It's a startup, so lots of work, overtime, some long days (which is not a con for those who are excited about their work)
- Some involvement in the defence sector
