Amazing work but lacking leadership

Software engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The work you do will be some of the most uniquely challenging and satisfying work in the space sector you can imagine. All of your colleagues are great and continue to improve upon each other.

Cons

Leadership is stuck in the “old defense” days but claims to try and be competitive against private tech, so it’s bleeding good engineers due to unnecessary red tape and bureaucracy.
