Lucid Engineer on Robotaxi Programme Leaves for Nvidia Ahead of Launch

Mmm, in 10 years, Lucid stock options will be worth x20, Nvidia x 2……

Perhaps. I’ll just be happy when they no longer have to announce when they’ll be running out of cash. Because that’s not a particularly attractive selling point to prospective employees or investors.

I'm not even 100% sure what Lucid is supposed to be anymore. Their (two) EV's are about 10-15% more real world efficient but that's really it. The Saphire is insanely fast but that's the halo car. Robotaxi is nothing, they already gave up on being a "licensing" company. For a while they looked like they were this super tech advanced EV company, but they're not in any demonstrable way really. So much of their stuff still doesn't work right or doesn't exist at all, and they've been lapped in nearly every category by all other manufacturers. To make things worse, their marketing bravado and former C-suite wrote a lot of checks their engineering couldn't cash, and it looks really bad. Fobs, junk HUDs, bugs, recalls, terrible service, that's what Lucid is known for now.I don't think Robotaxi even matters at this point, and I don't think this will hurt them. They need the Cosmos to be some sort of renaissance or I have no idea what they could possibly pivot to. At least the new CEO seems to be very pragmatic and sensible in what their strengths and weaknesses are.

Spent a day driving the Lucid. It’s new trick is it demands a PIN to drive (as it has for months and Lucid can’t figure it out) but now the screen freezes so I can’t enter the PIN so I just sit their while their software shuts the bed and eventually resets so I can enter the PIN. I hate it. Lucid wants to ship it to Utah cuz there’s still no mobile tech for Idaho. I mean there is, but it’s still one guy and he can’t actually service five states. So it’s the same trash for a year. So no, I’m not!

Being in ID, you should probably invoke the Potato law, may take you further than the Lemon one 🙂
Jokes aside, it's hard to fathom what they're making you go through...

Even Lucid Service doesn’t want the car. They’ve requested that Lucid buy it back TWICE. And Lucid just says service does “shoddy work” and they’re not taking it back cuz it’s not Lucid corporates fault. 4 months in service so far. Lucid doesn’t care. This completely broken company is fighting with each other and I’m stuck in the middle.

And with all these facts on your side you still lost your arbitration. It makes no sense.

I already posted their argument about "Lucid Service Inc" vs "Lucid Manufacturing, Inc". Arbitration isn't great, the mediator isn't a lawyer, and in this case, got it wrong. Thats why we are taking them to State court where the law applies. BBB Autoline is just a racket for manufactureres to force you into arbitration that takes months.

On the second buyback, never even got a response. That whole department seems to have quit, all you get now is an automated email saying they have "no timeline for replies".
 
What do you expect of A company of 7k employees , for all them to stay in the job for ever hhhhh this is normal all employees jump ship , he almost stayed there for 3 years which is a good time period to jump to a different job
