Groq builds LPU (Language Processing Unit) chips for fast AI inference, founded in 2016 by Jonathan Ross, who had led Google's original TPU effort. It's a hardware-plus-cloud startup that scaled hard after 2024 (a $2.8B Series D and a large Nvidia inference-licensing deal), and the internal vibe matches: "Build. Ship. Repeat. High-performance is the baseline." Employees consistently praise brilliant colleagues and cutting-edge work, but the honest caveats are frequent strategy and management churn and a fast pace that can spill into personal time.
