IonQ scores B on the Alion truth index (A is best, E worst), measured over 25 open roles re-checked against its own hiring board: 0% look like ghost listings, 88% have gone stale and 0% are the same role posted again. Its roles close in a median of 40 days. It measures how much of what this employer publishes turns into a real, finite search - not the employer as a workplace. How the index is computed
Overview
Chris Monroe and Jungsang Kim created IonQ in 2015 after over 25 years of research. Their preliminary investment amounted to $2 million from the University of Maryland and Duke University, which enabled them to develop trapped ion quantum computers. Within a few years, they constructed two of the most accurate quantum computers in the world, garnering additional funding from Amazon Web Services, Google's GV, and NEA.
