El Segundo has a rich history in aerospace and aviation, attracting the best minds throughout the world to design and build military aircraft, manufacture satellite technology, and even conceptualize the first man to the moon - becoming an ideal incubator for thought exploration, research, and invention.

Rivian's new office in El Segundo continues the history of ideation, from mocking-up new concepts, to problem solving, to collaborating on future developments.

Home to service & vehicle operations, delivery & mobile operations, brand digital, and facilities, this space will pilot a flexible spatial design. As teams evolve, the space will evolve with it - offering a nimble workstyle, from a facilities design library to collaborative workshop studios. When working in certain areas, team members even get a glimpse into our vehicle service center.

Co-locating with a Rivian service site creates energy by providing visibility to the activity that directly serves our customers, as well as a place for our in-region support teams to call home.

If you are interested in joining Rivian and leveraging this space nestled by the beaches of South Bay, Los Angeles, we'd love to talk with you. https://rivian.com/careers

So completes the transformation from a Michigan-based company to a California-based company thereby excluding all the wonderful Engineering talent here in Michigan that have cut their teeth in the auto industry and unwilling/unable to relocate to California. Three cheers!!!

Yeah, because Rivian has some kind of moral obligation to take care of the people in MI who don’t want to move. 🤦‍♂️

 

[ERivTruck]

OH no, I was not saying that. I was just stating that they opened the doors here in MI and started off down that path. Poached a lot of good, senior experienced people from the auto industry here, but once they announced they were moving out west, it was like dropping Thor's hammer around town here. You could cut the anger with a knife on how slick this move was.

 

[RITVT]

Has Michigan become friendly to new EV entrants?

 

[ERivTruck]

Not from a dealership / selling / buying perspective. But as far as adoption and consumers buying them, oh yes. There are a lot of Bolts on the roads, and the usual gamut of Teslas. Still hoping to catch a R1T testing out of Plymouth but no joy on that one!

 

[Kanundrum]

Nice!

This looks like the most relaxing place I'm ever going to get my vehicle serviced at haha. Hopefully the other service centers look like this.
