Hard problems, humble engineers

Pros

Challenging problems everyday, but with the support of humble, smart, and overall easy going teammates that are always eager to lend a helping hand. Culture can vary from team to team, as anywhere, but overall everyone I’ve worked with has been great. Hard work is rewarded and recognized.

Cons

Not the best PTO policy and sometimes long hours are an unspoken expectation that everyone just accepts. Project management often over promises and the engineers are left to suffer as a result (is there any company where this isn’t true?). As the company continues to grow, the previous smaller company perks and individual attention are becoming increasingly less frequent.

Pros

Very thorough process, with great communication of each stage within that process. Opportunity to meet key stakeholders in the interview, discuss company culture, role objectives and life at Shield AI. The site, the operation and most importantly, the people really impressed me. The team were passionate about the product and the company. Even through the limited time I spent in the interview process, I bought into the culture and can't wait to be part of it.

Cons

None so far, everything has been smooth and professional.
