Good job for good engineers - Engineer Rigetti Computing Employee Review

Pros

This is a good place to be a solid, independently driven engineer. The problems are challenging and the other engineers and technicians are clever, with tons of collective education and experience. Your peers will challenge you if you ask for feedback or input, or leave your work alone if you don’t. There is an incredible culture among the ICs to listen and support one another.

Cons

This company has seen a lot of leadership turnover. I think one reason is that there are frequent high-level direction changes without low-level input. Middle and senior leaders do carve out space for their teams to solve the right low-level problems, but it seems to burn them out.

Pros

Rigetti is great place to grow in a number of dimensions as a software engineer. You will be surrounded by talented mathematics and scientists. Their discipline is infectious and you will likewise be treated with respect if you bring a strong software skill set to bear on the company mission. This is not a place to come work if you want to be the star of the show or catch a rocket to the moon (quantum computing is a long term technology). But if you like to grow technically in a number of dimensions, this is a good place.

Cons

The company is not new and the industry is still in an R&D phase. Technical challenges lie ahead before financial sustainability.

Pros

Nothing comes to mind - place was awful - left the minute the opportunity presented itself

Cons

Everything here was awful - tons of cons - too many to list completely Management was highly political, unfocused, unprepared Monitoring was non-existent Teams competed against each other instead of working together Non-trivial was the catch phrase for not doing the right thing ("collaboration" here was a joke)
