Pros

Fun place and good people. A very challenging place to work. If you are into space flight this is a great place to be. Good benefits.

Cons

A very demanding work schedule. Some of the scheduling is very unrealistic. They have very aggressive goal the are trying to meet and still have a small work force to do it.

Pros

You get to work with some great people. Lots of perks like free lunch once a week, snacks, drinks. If you're inexperienced it's a great place to pick up some new skills, assuming they let you do the work correctly you could come out ahead!

Cons

Too much politics and incompetent management. Some of them don't even have a clue! The schedule of projects is also a joke, unrealistic with the staff the company has, the company is already years behind schedule, what's the rush now? Lots of bad apples in the mix forces the good workers to carry alot of dead weight. Pay increase is a joke. Goals are a joke. A small company trying to be a big company. Someone is taking Bezos to the cleaners with this place!!

Pros

Great coffee and free lunch on Tuesdays. Innovative culture, fun to participate in that environment. Great co workers.

Cons

Almost no internal movement throughout the company. You stay at the job you're hired at. Clueless, inept leadership team. Bad benefits package. Extremely dissatisfied workforce.
