Pros

Employee-friendly policies on dogs at work, PTO, good benefits. There's a rocket factory on site and some cool paraphernalia from sci-fi movies.

Cons

Very political environment. Just as slow-moving and incompetent as every other big aerospace company, but with a more arrogant attitude. Everything is a slave to the schedule, causing inter-department bickering and a lot of blame to fall on whichever group is not politically positioned to throw it on someone else.

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
