      Pros

      Salaries are competitive with others in the industry.

      Cons

      Allowing hourly employees to "work from home" contributes to this company falling behind in the race to space. Jeff Bezos should take note of how his money is being invested.

      Pros

      Decent enough pay. Easy to find people who relate to the state of things and also need to talk about it.

      Cons

      No career development unless a level 1. And then the ceiling comes fast. Low morale. The company recently targeted and fired a great deal of people eligible for the annual bonus, and are backfilling with lower level hires that are not eligible nor will become eligible for the annual bonus. Seeing peers get walked out for no good reason is highly demoralizing, and then watching more peers flee the company for safer haven doesn't either help. Toxic politics are rampant, it's like Game of Thrones - Corporate Aerospace Edition, and it's detracting from actually producing results while further beating down morale. Very top heavy, especially after the recent culling and voluntary departures. A lot of managers with a couple people under them while more lower level folks get let go. (toxic politics) Things will get a lot worse before they improve. Including if the company can get to rate with production and launch the vehicles. Having low morale and low outputs is no good for anyone.
