He was also not sure of the refreshers or bonus - said it could be 30% but could be less based on how it would be doing 1 yr from now. Also they won’t have mass production until 2024? You should research the lidar space before making a decision.
I got an offer from Apple and they matched the base pay and added a sign on bonus to it. Aeva’s stock tanked after xpeng’s P5 was announced. In the long run, money or growth wise, nvidia/Apple makes more sense.
I declined it too and got a better position and job title with Apple. I bought some stock too after a VP lectured me about their 4d solution.
Bad, bad decision! 😬😬
