Interesting work most of the time.
Friendly engineers and scientists.
Cons
Where to begin...
-The company is unable to retain top talent, and has recently engaged of several rounds of layoffs.
-Employee morale is incredibly low.
-Unrepresentative performance review/feedback that stalls career growth.
-A bloated corporate budget that siphons money from the engineering efforts, resulting in failed technology demonstrations and loss of contracts.
-Leadership quietly scaled back benefits resulting in more expensive health insurance premiums -- extremely sneaky and unprofessional.
Initial startup company, Made In Space, had a fun, hardworking and passionate group of people.
Cons
After acquisition, employees are treated like disposable drones by HR, which employed shady practices to avoid giving out bonuses and raises.
Lots of great employees have left in the past year.
Bad executive leadership is ruining this company. See also; boys club, nepotism.
