Pros

The Texas site is such a unique experience within Blue. The last bastion of "Old Blue" culture and experience. Everyone is tightknit and focused on mission. Such a hardworking team who will do anything the company asks of them.

Cons

The Texas site is located in a very remote region of Texas. Nearest Town is quite small and offers few amenities - shopping, grocery, entertainment...etc. Insular community, just starting to consider change. Takes a while to get used to far west Texas lifestyle and remoteness.

Pros

-The engineers and technicians are all awesome -Lots of room for you to grow in a technical manner

Cons

management, a lot of upper management causes Blue Origin to be more bureaucratic, and its causing blue origin to have a more boomer feel to it. The technical talent is almost akin to any of the other new space industries yet it seems like we keep not meeting our potential. Its akin to having a team with great players but horrible coaches and general managers

Pros

Blue has an incredible mission and they strive to value and empower their employees while pursuing their goals in a bullish way. This is really exciting and rewarding work and I've never been apart of a company where so many employees are so happy and fired up to work here. They just improved their 2022 health plans and 401k to be extremely competitive. As an employee I feel heard, compensated well, and feel as though I have a clear path for excellent career growth.

Cons

Blue is hyper focused on making the right hires so their interview process can be lengthier than others. Some view this as a con but as an employee, I appreciate it as it protects our culture and ensures we are working with the best in each respective field.
