Declining State

Pros

A once a great company

Cons

The company used to be a great team with great solutions working towards cutting edge quality chips, until the higher up management decided to sell the company. Since then things have just been declining. The flows and solutions have been replaced by broken or non-existent ones, the schedules are not realistic, and even the mid-level management have lost their power. The team is suffering and some people are leaving. A disregard to the team basically by selling the company, done by people who once claimed that their mission is not to be merged and acquired and is to IPO as an independent entity

Pros

The best reason to work here is (was) the people

Cons

The best people are all leaving and the company isn't trying to fix their problems. Leadership is just keeping the lights on until they can cash out

Firstly, we’re glad to hear that you valued the colleagues you had at Graphcore –it is one of the things that makes our company special. We’re sorry that you’ve been left with some negative feelings about Graphcore and its direction. This is a really exciting time in AI compute with huge opportunities for us. AI is a fast-evolving field and ensuring that the Graphcore is positioned to address those opportunities has meant change – including the departure of some valued colleagues and friends. Be assured that we are in it for the long-run and the company is focused on the right priorities. We wish you well and hope the experiences that you had at Graphcore will serve you well in your continuing career.
