      Pros

      Always growing, no matter what happens. Jeff will always pour money into Blue. Lots of incredible projects happening all at once. If you are a good engineer, you can spend an entire career here and progress far faster than in other organizations.

      Cons

      New culture shift means working very long hours. Many Blue engineers and staff didn't adapt to that. Many are doing great, some are not. Pay is much lower than what is expected for an advanced role. Blue grew very rapidly, and many people quite honestly should not have been hired. Similar to adding grease to a bearing, at some point there is too much and the bearing begins to spend energy pushing sticky grease around. This is what it feels like to work at Blue right now, with some many people who are either underqualified for spaceflight or not used to working the demanding hours.
