Working at ShieldAI

[u/Leather_Skirt_1268]

Considering an opportunity in a support/business function (finance side) at Shield AI. Read through the existing threads here and elsewhere — lots on engineering and flight test, not much specific to finance/business support roles. A few things I’d genuinely value input on:

**1.**  **Support functions specifically** — is the 50-60hr culture uniform company-wide, or does it vary meaningfully by function? Anyone in finance, accounting, or business ops able to speak to their actual weekly pattern?

**2.**  **Longevity** — for people who’ve been there 2+ years, what’s kept you, or what made you leave? Trying to separate “hard but rewarding” from “burn and churn.”

**3.**  **Product maturity** — how do people internally actually feel about the core products’ real capability vs. the external narrative? Genuinely curious, not trying to start anything.

**4.**  **Location differences** — several posts reference one site specifically; is the culture noticeably different across locations?

Not trying to pile on — genuinely trying to make an informed decision. Appreciate any real, specific experience over general vibes.
