Cruise is a nightmare

I don't think so. I recently joined Cruise . It's been about a month and a half since I joined and it's awesome. My manager and team have been really supportive . Most of the technologies are new to me and I'm getting sufficient time to ramp up. There isn't any constant pressure to complete my ramp up and start working on any projects.

If it's not obvious by Waymo's 700-vehicle fleet, they are also launching a taxi service in SF "soon"

AV companies have made lots of promises. Let's see if waymo can deliver. This year's disengagement report wasn't in waymo's favor

Likewise, let's see if Cruise delivers. I don't think there has been a single video taken by a member of the public using the invite-only service.

I'd avoid General Motors like the plague.

Care to elaborate ?

Can you share the numbers?

Cruise pkvn_ Feb 17, 2022

I think Cruise cash will beat Waymo TC.
