      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Salary, exciting industry and challenges, some very smart colleagues

      Cons

      Culture lacks integrity, total lack of professionalism, it's about who "stabs you in the back the strongest" . It will never be a leader in the industry.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great pay and benefits. In-house gym. Working with the most talented knowledgeable individuals in the industry. Always challenged.

      Cons

      Poor executive team that's trying to run the company as an old defense contractor, yet trying to compete with SpaceX.. good luck. Poor development execution that puts faulty project planning to the fault of the employee, and pressures them to recover schedule. No passion. Not many truly believe in the founders long term mission or objective, especially the space tourism part or the legal strategy. The founders 'philosophy' of avoiding PR (besides infographics and wealth/success flaunting) creates a vacuum in the public domain that the public DOES fill with negativity, which seeps in to the morale of the workforce. When the public HATES what you do and the person you work for, it's hard to remain enthusiastic or passionate. Huge turnovers in 2020-2021.
