Pluspunten

WiTricity has been pioneering wireless charging technology since 2007. Though there has been ebb and flows, working at WiTricity was incredibly meaningful, pushing a technology that will be necessary to autonomize vehicles and dynamic devices and I am convinced one day will be commonplace. Additionally, WiTricity's team was comprised of some truly amazing professionals solving a complex challenge with blank slates.

Minpunten

Over the last 6 months, a new CEO has entered the scene. With very marginal experience, primarily as a Lawyer and an Army man, he decided that the future of the company would mold to his personal preferences. He laid-off most of the company, domestically and abroad, with them leaving most of the knowledge that made WiTricity great. In the process, he hired some of his friends and daughter, with limited to no civilian experience, much less running technology companies. I do not know how the company will move forward from this.

Pluspunten

Finally weeded out all the slack weighing the company down. Old crew was wrong people in the wrong positions with the wrong attitude. Maybe good people, just not the right fit. Now company is on track.

Minpunten

Lots of bad reviews from disgruntled former employees who were the problem not the solution.

Pluspunten

Historically possessed an outstanding corporate culture with a strong emphasis on work-life balance and psychological safety. The previous management team established a highly collaborative environment, robust infrastructure, and stable operational workflows. Excellent peer group with deep technical/domain expertise and a proactive attitude toward problem-solving. Solid compensation structure and clear, transparent evaluation metrics prior to the leadership transition.

Minpunten

The arrival of the new CEO has significantly altered the organizational dynamic, leading to increased bureaucracy and shifting priorities. The previous culture of trust and autonomy is being replaced by top-down decision-making, causing friction within established teams. A noticeable decline in internal morale and an increase in the turnover of key talent due to the sudden strategic realignment. Reduced transparency in communication regarding long-term business directions and restructuring plans.
