Incredible teammates and mission overshadowed by toxic management - Director Last Energy Employee Review

Working at Last Energy was exciting because the product tackled a real and urgent need in the energy sector. The company’s vision for modular nuclear plants was ambitious but grounded in practical engineering, which made the work feel purposeful. It was motivating to see progress translate into tangible milestones that could have a major impact on energy reliability and climate outcomes. Overall, it was rewarding to contribute to a product with the potential for meaningful real-world impact.

While working at Last Energy, your only focus in life will be to ensure the company succeeds. Prepare for zero work-life balance.

Last Energy has ambitious goals and a driven, mission-focused team. We collaborate closely, encourage healthy pushback, and never deviate from the north-star vision of the company. We have exciting commercial momentum and are on our way to deploying nuclear at scale. The team is full of brilliant people who leave their ego at the door to move the needle on something as ambitious as making clean, abundant, energy available to the industries and people that need it most. Our CEO is incredibly passionate about making this vision come to fruition and has assembled a company full of do-ers that challenge the status quo.

As it goes with any early-stage startup, there are operational efficiencies that need to be put in place to scale. At the moment, we are experiencing normal growing pains and are growing while building - that push and pull naturally creates friction points.
