    1.0

    Current Employee / Engineer

    Pros: Honestly struggled to find a genuine pro here. If I had to name one, it would be that the funding level gives you access to resources you wouldn't expect, it has the budget of a mature company. But that's where the positives end.

    Cons: $6f

    Current Employee / Engineer

    Pros: Love the ambition, TC, and upside thanks to handshake AI. Very cool work as well.

    Cons: 9-9-5 culture, although weekends are usually chill for engineers. High performance bar

    Current Employee / Software Engineer

    Pros: Lunch and Dinner, and Snacks and free ubers home after 7pm.

    Cons: Low pay, long hours, toxic work expectations. Business ops work (data labelling) gets offloaded to engineering teams.
