Exciting field, terrible place to work - Engineer Space Micro Employee Review

Pros

Really exciting projects with lots of opportunity Although you can get mandatory unpaid overtime for years on end with no bonus, most people ignore management and don't show up without getting in trouble

Cons

Management decisions seem to be random. Design specs are written against analysis of engineers. People let go for false reasons. May be asked to do things which could be considered fraudulent. May be asked to do a bad job when a good job would cost less and be faster. Exciting projects are rarely carried out in a way which meets their potential.

Pros

Following acquisition, the parent company is competent and aligned with industry standards. Very diverse team. The products are interesting. Good pay.

Cons

- Culture is resistant to change, with some people feeling threatened by new ideas or different wants of doing things, even if it's to align with industry standards and best practices - unprofessional and degrading behavior is tolerated, especially towards minorities - Lack of infrastructure and reactive engineering environment. The engineering is under scoped, amateur, and the schedules are too condensed given the complexity it would take to execute the programs correctly. - Many of the growing pains listed in reviews over a decade ago are still prevalent in the organization. Despite growth, those pains have not been overcome or resolved.
