Pros

- Worklife balance - Generous PTO - 401k match - Trying to become a more inclusive, diverse culture

Cons

- I've experienced extremely tight, stressful, "things due yesterday" deadlines to all of a sudden no work at all for a long while. Very jarring. Wish there was more consistent work. Boils down to management though. - Lots of leadership reorganization shuffling which you're not sure how that affects you - Diversity metrics are nothing to brag about

Pros

Excellent work-life balance compared to many aerospace companies. Good benefits (healthcare, retirement, PTO).

Cons

- Five days per week in the office - Parking can be challenging. - Working across multiple time zones (U.S., Brazil, India) creates coordination overhead - Compensation is not competitive for the Seattle area. - Limited opportunities for meaningful career growth. While there are internal career paths, I haven't found many opportunities that align with the technical challenges and responsibilities I'm looking for - SPEEA's seniority-based structure can slow advancement for newer employees - Programs have very long development cycles, so it can take years to see your work become a finished product - Less exposure to cutting-edge technology than companies focused on emerging products (space, medical devices, AI hardware, quantum computing, etc. Significant bureaucracy and slow decision-making
