How are the comps and WLB at Anduril? I’m seeing comps on levels for L4 (Google L4 equivalent I assume) for 250k-300k. Is that about right? Also wondering about WLB since defense is usually relaxed, but being a tech company, and so young, I’m not sure how relaxed they would be.
Far from relaxed. Exact opposite, which is why we are so successful
Can't comment on comp bands. WLB is not what you would find at a traditional defense company but it's worth it to me to be doing rewarding work and being in a startup atmosphere at a startup that is on a positive trajectory (I've worked in traditional defense)
Also , comp bands are a silly concept because Anduril stock has so much more upside than dinosaurs like Google
Those comps are probably a little inflated just because the stock has appreciated so much over the last two years. I'd expect new L4 offers to come in a little lower than that range. Defense is usually relaxed, but that's because cost-plus contracts are a WW1-era relic. We fund all our own R&D, which strongly incentivizes actually getting shit done.
current TC: $665k.... It's your fault for not joining sooner
WLB is whatever you want to make of it. Set boundaries and get your work done, no one will complain about what hours you work.
What do they do ? Startup?
