Pros

Free lunches, and shuttle buses from Las Cruces.

Cons

Consider the business model, and you’ll realize there aren’t going to be repeat customers, whereas the airline industry offers consistent revenue. Then there’s a high turnover rate. Many employees leave by choice, and that causes a drain on talent and workplace morale. In other cases, good people are laid off for no reason, while some toxic and counterproductive people remain. There’s a noticeable cultic vibe in the VG workplace and if you're not drinking the company “beverage” you probably won’t like working there. I left after my year was up. If you’re interested in space transportation and rocket science, you must look at other companies.

Pros

People and communities are wonderful. It is a good brand to work under. Hybrid schedule is great

Cons

Zero promotion opportunities. Go get experience, but do not expect them to promote you in any way. They will only promote people they like. Brand name is only good thing. management are silo from people who are doing the actual work. VP and directors will yell at you and embarrassed you during an executive meeting.
