Pros

Fantastic people that are very smart and talented

Cons

Management that is trying to make Blue a fulfillment center instead of a rocket company. They lay people off under the guise of 'performance' and then distribute the work on the rest of the team so is already under water. They just fire people for performance without employees ever knowing that they did not meet the managers expectation. No PIP's just fire out of nowhere. It is all about the rate and numbers now, People are just numbers and used as peons they may even slap a barcode on the employees soon to scan them. The morale is so low but management doesn't care at all. A new leadership principle was implemented last year that says Hire and develop the best. Blue does hire the best but has never done any development and then management is shocked when people leave because there is no development.
