      Meaningful work+long hours=SpaceX

      Avionics intern
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Very meaningful work. Whatever you're working on, you feel like you're contributing to something important. You get a lot of respect for the work you do among your peers. You get to learn and talk to a lot of very interesting and smart people

      Cons

      Lots of long hours. Some people work weekends, but interns generally don't. If you can handle an average of 50 hours a week, you should be fine. Expect to get paid either the same or less than your peers. I can't think of anyone that is in my same field that gets paid less as an intern.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Fast-paced work environment Never a dull day Individual employees given a lot of responsibility, meaning you can really make an impact Great place to start your career, you learn a lot Great place to fail

      Cons

      Can be a very ambiguous in terms of expectations Very long working hours, can be unnecessary, people aren't encouraged to balance work and life so burnout is common Different culture and experience by employees at different sites, perks aren't equal Career planning and development is non-existent
