Pros

-Learned more in one summer interning at SpaceX than I thought possible. Was challenged to take on tasks which I did not have a solid background in, while receiving the support necessary to learn , helping to set me up for success. -Felt like part of the team. Regularly presented or contributed in meetings. - Was able to expand my horizons by collaborating with many different departments within SpaceX, gaining insight to many aspects of the company. -Worked in an atmosphere where everyone has a common goal, which was quite motivating.

Cons

-Long days and often inconsistent working hours. Daily schedule was sometimes unpredictable as priorities quickly changed. -Large campus, sometimes long or inconvenient walks to other buildings.

Pros

Great work environment and culture. Interns take on a lot of responsibility and you can make an impact with the short amount of time you have.

Cons

Project scopes could be a little less open ended because as the project progresses, there tends to be setbacks that could have been prevented with a proper scoping.
