As - Avis employé Staff Engineer Raxium

Leadership is largely clueless—both technically and managerially. The company still operates like a process-driven MicroLED shop trying to cobble together poor-quality demos for Google rather than building a real product roadmap. There is a constant, almost desperate push to impress customers without addressing fundamental technical gaps. Long-tenured employees remain primarily to hold on to their acquisition packages, not because they see a viable future.
