Joby Aviation

This company is working on creating an entirely new all-electric transportation platform. The safety critical nature of the project (i.e. FAA) means lots of rigidity and therefore growing pains abound for us as we move from R&D phase to a "Certified" product. This can be a drag for some as the uncertainty of new processes and time sensitivity of achieving certification can be stressful. Nothing worth doing is easy and I think the company has some really passionate people but it definitely needs to get a lot more hands on deck to be a success. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
 Being part of a dynamic team focused on making the company successful, where everyone is supportive of each other in a hardworking but fun environment. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Everyone is expected to do what needs to be done, so if you won’t pull your weight, don’t bother applying!

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Hardworking, adaptive, inclusive. Supportive, fun and challenging. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
3 exceptional meals a day provided free, exciting, innovative.

Great company with a very innovative product. Highly result oriented company which can cause burnout for employees and poor work life balance. Lack of proper systems in place which causes ton of confusion and reworks. Earlier used to be a bunch of engineers trying to figure out the evtol product but now needs focus on certification in order to make this a reality. 

It's a long-term startup. They are  changing the world, but the culture is so focused on being THE FIRST they don't look around at their people to see if they're doing it RIGHT. It's a great place to work for a year or two to get a down payment on a house, but you'll be depressed and endure emotional triggers due to the time spent there. 
Suggest: document everything, especially things management says they will delegate elsewhere because it's an unorganized culture and they will likely only remember asking you to do it, not that they agreed to delegate; take your PTO, it's so important for your health!

The work environment at this company was highly toxic, largely due to ineffective leadership on the manufacturing floor. Management was often unapproachable, dismissive of concerns, and failed to prioritize employee safety or well-being. A lack of communication and a culture of favoritism led to high turnover and poor morale. I would not recommend this company to those seeking a respectful and supportive workplace.

The pace of work at Joby was good sometimes .

At other times it was slow so you looked for other jobs to do in the meantime .

Management and Work Culture are Great there .

The best part of the job is doing a job well done .

The least favored part of the job is working in an area where the temperature was regulated per machines and equipment. 

Incredible place to work. The best benefits package I've ever seen / heard of, with a fully staffed kitchen that provides breakfast, lunch, and dinner! Emphasis on company culture and you know the CEO/Founder and leadership actually care about their employees.

Short cuts to all  their projects I worked on.   All the equipment they received was sub-par or not safe.    Management is a top down working environment, where the CEO has his hands in ALL aspects of the operations.   He should let his managers do their jobs and not just be "yes men"

The founder of this company is visionary. Some smart minds. Very few people stays with the company for more than 3 years. People rotates very often.  The working culture and the management are terrible. 

The management is flexible on the work schedule, I enjoyed the time spent with the other colleagues and everyone is very supportive. I learned about the manufacturing process of composites.
