Pros & Cons
Together AI
- Open-source AI infrastructure — real mission alignment, not just marketing
- Small team with outsized research output; your work has direct impact
- Early-stage means wearing many hats constantly — not for specialists
- Limited career ladder; growth paths are still being defined
Wayve
- Great culture — smart, friendly people with a supportive and inclusive familial bond
- Immense creative freedom and autonomy; founders are humble and open to being challenged
- Career progression framework is unclear — salaries and promotions feel arbitrary
- Very ambitious demands create vulnerability to burnout; processes built on the fly
Bottom Line
Together AI
Choose Together AI if you want real open-source mission with outsized research output — but expect to wear many hats.
Wayve
One of Europe's top deep-tech companies with excellent Glassdoor ratings (4.4) and a cutting-edge AV research environment — but expect an intense pace and most roles are London-based.
