Pros

Blue puts a lot of responsibility in the hands of every employee, which makes for a good culture of mutual respect and accountability. I don't feel as if I'm being micromanaged And of course the subject of what we do is nothing less than awesome. I feel like what I'm working on now will end up in the Smithsonian some day, which is a pretty cool feeling. The work-life balance is good by start-up standards. This is a place where you can work hard, but not get burned out.

Cons

It's pretty hard to think of any cons. The work hours are a bit longer than your typical Big Aero company, but not unreasonably so.

Pros

Free cheese and yogurt. Some people are nice others will make sure you fail

Cons

No equity unless you like monopoly money. No IPO for Blue ever and liquidity events are just bonus event. No work life balance. Toxic leadership who do not care about but will lie to you as long as you serve their own purpose. Everyone is looking, DO NOT come here!!! You will lose years of your life stressed out, frustrated and nothing but an average salary to show for. There are better places out there for space work
