Pros

Blue Origin compensates well above the average within the industry. It is a great place to learn through frequent failures (what NOT to do).

Cons

Working within Finance at Blue is constant crisis mode. Senior Leadership has not helped in providing consistent documented practices, cost management, or a review cadence. Every financial practice differs between BUs, that don't talk - so it's very probably to get rutted working for a single area. Approvals on budgets are unclear - so you cannot provide guidance to your peers on whether they can/cannot make updates to their estimates or even procure essential hardware. Among mid-grade financial leadership I've witnessed swearing, condescension, and other non-professional characteristics. Working in Finance is less about supporting the business and more about supporting your boss. The general sense is that to progress you need to save-face and play politics.
