Nvidia AV team 280K Cruise 320K Zoox 345K The first two have a lot more cash and the last one is mostly just equity. It doesn’t seems to me that those stock are going to liquidate soon though. So I really don’t know how to compare the number on these offers. They told me that some AV startup will bankrupt before delivering the service? So maybe Nvidia is safer? I’m currently working at a small startup so not sure if I should go to a big company to get some credibility on my resume. Will Cruise or Zoox look as good as Nvidia if on resume? Seems like few of my friends heard about these two in Bay Area... Also I want to stay in AV industry in the long run, which one could help me to get into Waymo someday? (They didn’t even take a look at my resume at the moment...)
Weird. There is hiring freeze at Nvidia now.
Cruise is not going anywhere, they are owned by GM. Don't know how liquid all that comp is, but that sounds like a very solid offer. I would take that over Zoox, personally.
This didn't age well
How much of Cruise's offer is cash?
Like 80%
What was your interview process like, prep, etc. Did you do the Udacity or mit av course, or something similar?
Zoox has the greatest upside and also the highest TC. Sounds like a no-brainer to me
Thanks for the advice. How does Zoox look like on resume? I wish I had Apple on my resume..
Zoox is a good company for sure. Excellent reputation. Apple is shit. Don’t worry about the prestige
Except NVDA other two are pure AV, no chance to diversify into different domains in the future and NVDA offer isn’t that bad.
What’s your background? What is your profile? Cruise is really good
