Pros

Exciting product and mission. Passionate people.

Much of senior leadership is highly inexperienced in aerospace. Making decisions as low-complex high-rate manufacturing, when the company is high-complex low-rate manufacturing. Many rapid decisions disregard safety and quality outcomes.

Pros

Inspiring work, celebratory team culture at launches, good medical insurance, plenty of catered lunches/snacks at the office

Cons

People brag about working every weekend and not taking vacation. There is limited proactive problem sharing/resolution; most teams will only share problems when it blows up in their face and blame another team.
