Pros

-Great Benefits!!! -Unique job -learning a new trade -support active reserves and former military. Celebrates Veterans day!!! -good pay(pay raise could be better) - CEO/President care about their employees for the most part.

Cons

- organizational work flow could be better - departments keeping work area clean and organized - doesn't match 401k. I would prefer that than stock awards. I know its weird to say but I don't have the money to pay for the taxes on the awards when they are released. Even though Spacex pays pretty well it is still hard to survive as a single person in LA finically. - pay raises aren't what I expected. I did work HARD all year and nothing to really show for it, when it came to pay raises.

Pros

Great ways to develop your skills and transition into new aspects of your career. The highest workmanship standards are kept, so if you are concerned with details about your work, his is a great place to be; it's expected to be your norm. Great people to work with; surely will make long term friends while here. Very relaxed management when it comes to being in there presence, but still expect nothing less than the best.

Cons

When it's time to go to work, and the hours are there, expect to have very little time to yourself. Be ready to work 6 days a week 12 hour days on end until the job gets done, and these stands can surpass a year to build.
