Pros

- Hard to get fired - People are impressed to hear you worked onsite at Kennedy Space Center

Cons

- Pay is low - Benefits are mediocre - Forced 50 hour weeks are common - Shift work is common - Work is far from cutting edge - Huge amounts of red tape required for small amounts of work - Zero accountability - Old Boys Club mentality - When you work on the Artemis Program you get to watch Spacex do everything you are doing faster, better, cheaper, and with a reusable rocket.

Just OK

Pros

Friendly and Diverse Team to work with, Benefits are OK.

Cons

No mentorship. Constantly increase in job expectations with little or no salary compensation. Understaffed so always working beyond the expected hours. No support or guidance when you really need help. Always take from the bottom to feed the top!
