Pros

I have found a company that I'm truly excited to come to work for every day! The company is founded on a mission that is something we are very passionate about. Our motto and leadership principles help develop our desire to reach common goals and set the bar high, making us all better employees. I love the people I work with. This is the first time I can truly say everyone cares about my contribution, development and progress. I am supported by my peers and manager. The HR team members are valued partners and we are continually driving to provide support, development and tools to ensure all employees are successful. Being apart of history making and the dream of working and living in space a reality for future generations is an awesome feeling.

Cons

Not sure if this is really a con, but the only thing that we are faced with and are working through is our rapid growth. We are taking the challenge in stride and are mindful of how our culture is changing and adapting.

Pros

4 weeks of PTO, good benefits, free drinks and snacks available at all locations.

Cons

Leadership is inconsistent and often incompetent, company is very segmentalized and each group operates to different goals and schedules, poor communication with other parts of the company and with leadership. There is an overarching Yes-men mentality amongst leadership, and they often are just aiming to not be the group to be to blame for delays or failures. Personal growth is limited and widely ranges between different groups, there are areas where people see regular raises and promotions, while the majority seems to be told there are freezes or that they will be put in for next cycle. Pay has fallen behind, in the past they used to pay well and above the industry standard, but have not kept pace. Hours can be very long, again dependent on your group, some people may enjoy things like work from home or flexible schedules, but the majority are asked to work long hours and even support roles that could be remote are forced to be on site, despite a lack of space for the number of employees. I moved desks locations and buildings 6 times in 3 years. Re-orgs happen every 6 months, and create significant instability within the company, but rarely bring positive improvements. Good talent is not rewarded, and leaving quickly.
