This is one of the most unique professional experiences I’ve had. The company was built around a very ambitious vision for physical AI, autonomy, and real-world systems. I came to work here for Troy Harvey's vision and principled approach to design. It was inspiring to work with him, and the mission drove me to work hard to achieve amazing things. I hope to continue to work with him in the future. What stood out most was the ability to connect hardware, software, AI, product, and customer value into one coherent direction. That kind of systems-level genius is rare. And his type of leadership uniquely collaborative leadership hard to come by. The work was meaningful because it felt like we were building something genuinely new, and we were doing it together as a team with a set of focused goals. The best part of the culture was the exposure to big ideas and high expectations. If you wanted to grow, learn, and be challenged, there was a lot of opportunity.

The pace and expectations are intense. Communication could sometimes move quickly if you aren't paying attention because the company and the ideas were operating at a high level of complexity.

Troy (the leaving founder) was an incredibly brilliant leader! He had such clarity and understanding across all aspects of the company: from the customer, to the market, deep into the technology — and how it all unfolded into the future, and what a product roadmap looks like to solve for each of those things. He brought energy and direction to the company that is impossible to replace. He was imaginative, intense, and deeply committed to the mission. He could take a complex technical or organizational problem 5 layers deep, then thread it back up to a larger vision of solving market and planet-scale problems in a way that made people want to contribute.

The new leadership isn’t competent. It has been 2 weeks, and I’ve seen enough. They are high on their own kool-aide, but aren’t listening to real concerns, and people are afraid to speak their minds. Meanwhile the company direction and technology leadership has been thrown into disarray, and the new leadership doesn’t seem to have a clue what they are doing. Without Troy, the company now feels like a chaotic free-for-all. Worse, the new “leadership” is treating the team like the lack of direction is some kind of gift. It's bizarre. And it’s more insidious than that: the least informed people are now leading the most informed.
