      Not good if you are not an engineer

      Human resources business partner

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Pay and exciting mission. Enjoy touring different work areas and meeting some of the employees, particularly scientists.

      Cons

      Scientists and other professionals are not treated as equals by engineers, particularly those who graduated from Auburn. Some of the other professions required just as much, if not more study and research than engineers. Yet, engineers are the only employees who are valued, and they bully all the other professionals.

      Slow, Lazy, Boring

      Mechanical engineer

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      People are generally impressed when they hear you work for NASA. Unless they have worked for NASA before or know about the engineering industry

      Cons

      Most people come here to end their careers. It is slow. Most people are either lazy or generally incompetent. It's no secret NASA doesn't attract the brightest talent.
