Pros

Great benefits - probably best in the industry salary, medical, 401K, paid-time off, parental leave and flexibility/time off for work-life balance

Cons

Company is too large and focused on the bottom line - seemingly unwilling to acknowledge the resource constraints and support that is needed for the business to be successful and grow. No such thing as minor coarse corrections - the company is all over the place. Many of the senior leaders in company do not understand the business.

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
