Pros

None. When you first come here, you will think it is a great place to work, only to find out the company has unrelenting schedules and had unreasonable expectations requiring 60 to 80 hours per week and has a burn out rate higher than 50 percent. .

Cons

One of the poorest managed companies in the US They work young employees( aged 25 to 30 ) 60 to 80 hours per week promising them stock options that never pan out. The average employee stays less than two years or is managed out of the company.

Pros

if you are not bringing innovation, change, and results to the design, production, and quality of the launch vehicles and spacecraft designs you will be immediately challenged by your peers, supervisors, and execs to up your game - on the double time.

Cons

if you are perceived as not bringing innovation, change, and results to the design, production, and quality of the launch vehicles and spacecraft designs you will be immediately challenged by your peers, supervisors, and execs to up your game - on the double time. And your job is absolutely on the line at all times.
