Pros
The drone industry is booming right now and skycatch has a good opportunity and a slight edge some other start ups in terms of funding, business and the size of the company. The engineers at skycatch are some of the most passionate you can find. Like most small companies, there aren't big processes or very much business overhead.
Cons
The management team seems to think the the company image is more important than actual working products. Many of the features that are showcased on their videos are not currently working and actually maybe years away. Yet potential employees maybe led to believe that they are. An investor may get a "demo" that just shows the easiest parts that are implemented. Everything from the blogs, tweets and talks are designed to create this illusion. You don't get the full scoop until you start working there and realize their IP is not as advanced as you first thought. Employee satisfaction is not an item on this company's list. Working for skycatch is THE award. As a result, the management constantly pushes for late night and weekend work. Crunch time schedules work on a short duration but really burn out employees. Most employees that are hired are not happy with this side of skycatch but deal with it until their equity is vested. This sort of culture trickles down from the top of skycatch. The management isn't very caring for individual situations of the employee and in most cases just very disrespectful.
