Levandowski has absolutely tarnished his own reputation. Sooner or later he will be abandoned by Uber - how could they possibly trust him if his thieving goes back a decade? - and finding employment or trust in the industry is going to be extremely difficult.

- tinbad 10y agoIf he really made $120m from Google alone, he probably thought he was safe by that point, I mean, he must have thought through this and bought himself a private island somewhere to go to when the shit was going to hit the fan..?
- revelation 10y agoThat decade of deception netted him >$100M. I don't think he's going to fill out some online job application form. Of course there is a pending civil suit from Waymo but what are the damages? Can't just make up a number based on the potential of self-driving cars and right now they are a mere money sink.
- valuearb 10y agoDidn't he make that $100M before he got to Google, i.e. from the company he helped start that was sold to Google? All he had to do was keep his nose clean at Google and let his stock vest.
- ryandrake 10y agoSo, why does he need to find employment in the industry? If I was a double-digit or triple-digit millionaire, I would not give a hoot about is how hard it will be to find employment.
- icedchai 10y agoPractically speaking, has enough money to sustain himself indefinitely. Why would he care?
- TheOtherHobbes 10y agoPerhaps he enjoys working at high profile companies on advanced high profile projects. Having a ton of money means you don't have to worry about food, transport, or housing. In no way does it scratch the itch to build and sell cool new stuff.
