Blue Origin reviews

- very immature processes and stovepiping between business units and departments within them - lots of disparate tools and reinventing the wheel - compensation is fair but not generous - workload/work life balance can be very heavy at times but this may just be my team - upper leadership does their best, but sometimes are given unrealistic goals/mandates from founder that get passed down the chain in ways that actual hinder operations - supply chain org. everything about it

The worst company I have ever worked for, full stop. I have never felt more proud than the day I accepted my offer after an arduous interview process and months (yes, months) of waiting to hear back from TA. I was going to work for one of the most notable space companies in the US and move on from the mom and pop company I’d been with. Hands down the most regrettable career decision I have ever made. There are no procedures. There are no guidelines. There is no accountability. There are no schedules. There is no leadership. The CEO is laughable. We win new contracts with NASA when we can’t even produce an engine in the timeframe we proposed. The morale of the entire Huntsville factory is hanging on by a thread. Human Resources support is non-existent. The only conversation anyone cares about is getting to rate, which we are nowhere near, and leadership doesn’t support at all, instead pinning the responsibility of doing that on the individual contributors. I can confidently say my happiest day at Blue Origin will be the day I turn in my badge.
