Prep for the Adventure Ahead

Pros

Look over your rations, do a final gear check, and pack your bags for the long haul because you are in for one big adventure. You'll need all your tools to succeed here and will get a chance to put to practice new ideas and skills you worked hard at honing. This is the mountaineer's route and it takes grit and skill to make the climb. The product and product plan is fantastic, the long term company plan is solid, we have an amazing core culture that I know the OG crew won't let die, and most importantly we have a CEO that listens. This place is not for the faint of heart, or those ill prepared for the adventure; You will be constantly expanding what you think is your limit.

Cons

Expect to push really hard to succeed Multiple locations necessitates the need to over communicate Space is tight at times

Pros

Rivian is a company with highly talented employees who possess skills and knowledge from many different industries resulting in a diverse workforce. The culture at Rivian is amazing and there are endless opportunities on a daily basis for each employee to contribute to the company's success. Rivian puts a lot of effort into ensuring that their employees have the right tools to do their job. The workplace is not only a desirable place to come each day but also one that makes employees feel valued. At Rivian there is open and comfortable communication whether you are talking to the person sitting next to you or RJ the CEO. And to top it off, the upcoming products are going to be amazing.

Cons

With launching amazing products comes a lot of hard work and dedication. Coming to Rivian this should be expected and not a surprise. If you are someone not willing to put in the effort than this may not be the right company for you.

Pros

Extremely challenging but rewarding work, motivated and exceptional team members, strong cultural values supported and embraced from the top down. Incredible state of the art products and inspiring leadership with a focused and long term company vision. Competitive compensation package and modernized work policies.

Cons

Challenging scaling rate for fast growing start up transitioning to established OEM. Highly aggressive product and time-to-market goals can mean long hours or high stress periods.
