Avantages
- Working on of the state-of-the-art project that can have a very wide range of applications: reliably picking and placing arbitrary unknown objects. - The atmosphere is genuine and extraordinarily friendly: - People go the extra mile to help you on your project in true team spirit. Collaboration is an integral part of every sprint and is valued and acknowleged. - There are a lot of in-person or remote event to meet and hangout with co-workers (game night, happy hour, BBQs, journal club, outings, "random coffee"). - You can be yourself: I like talking about my toddlers, boardgames and nerdy stuff (with a lot of dad jokes), some of my coworkers about exotic food and places they've visited, other about gardening and their pets etc... and it creates a genuine, diverse and happy atmosphere that everyone seems to enjoy a lot. I've met quite a few RightHand "alumni" at our social events, so people really enjoy being there even after they've left the company ! - You are encouraged to develop your skills, roles and responsibilities: Your managed works with you to set short-term and mid-term development goals. - The orientation process is very well organized, especially for a startup: You quickly end up meeting everyone in the company and knowing what they do. It creates many opportunities for collaboration. - You can work from home, or come to the office, or choose a hybrid policy.
Inconvénients
- It's still a startup, so no perks like 401k matching (yet). - [minor] At the moment, if you choose the hybrid work approach, you need to reserve a hot desk every day that you come to the office. This means that you can't leave stuff on or under your desk from one day to the next, which I like doing.
