Pros

Salary and compensation package Benefits Free lunch and snacks High bar and smart mechanical engineers Stellar engineering team

Cons

Bad money management, company $200 million loss in Q2 and only doing a couple of million in sales. Flagship rocket scrapped not a rocketship company no tangible rocket launch product A lot of Yes "people" Bad culture and not diverse at all, Psychologically unsafe working environment alcohol-ridden expensive party events held at the cost of the shareholder Not for black/brown or any type of diverse person - you will be expected to know your place and you are not free to be yourself. It is fine if you look caucasian, but keep your mouth shut head down and do as your told Bullying is commonplace and allowed Overwork employees, with no recognition, successes not awarded lack of accountability poor work ethic among many staff and allowing incompetent team members to continue without any correction. incompetence is celebrated Blame game culture No honesty No honest feedback loop You will not know exactly the direction the company is going in lie about company finances and customers. Lying is common by management and keeping you in the dark is the style Negative impact for failing to deliver NASAs payload - NASA dropped Astra
