Are they any good. I've never heard of anything noteworthy coming out of that place. Their office is close to where I live in Los Altos area. Also, can they match MANGA comp in case 'someone' is interested ;) TC: 500k down to 400k because of $SNAP. #toyotaresearchinstitute #toyota #carsnshit
TRI does more than just autonimous vehicles. We also have teams devoted to Robotics, ML research, and materials research (mostly battery tech for EVs). I have been with TRI for a little over 2 years (on the autonomous driving team) and I am happy there. Overall I find the work interesting and the people to be talented and easy to work with. TRI cannot match FAANG in terms of TC (we dont get RSUs), but our base salary and cash bonus tend to be higher. WLB also is quite reasonable for most teams at least. Sure, TRI has its issues. Every company I have ever worked for has served up some flavor of bullshit. The trick is to find a place that serves the flavor you like. But, overall I am quite happy there and I am not looking for anything new.
Thanks for the context!
Could you provide a referral?
Great place to work. I like the comment above about every place having it's own flavour of bullshit. TRI had great people and a unique flavor of bullshit.
How is the TC?
Open to referral ?
They work on all the automated driving/driver assistance features that are in Toyota/Lexus vehicles. They don’t obviously publicly talk about their projects because of the competition
