Pros

Great coworkers. Management are very flexible and seem to care about employees. The work is really cool (who wouldn't want to build and launch a rocket?)

Cons

Management can't control schedules as thats outside of the contract scope. Other contractors supply the equipment we integrate and even NASA can't make them hold to the schedule.

Our customers are amazing, we get to meet people from all over the world.

Management hires mostly family and friends. Management give men promotions faster than women and the men get paid more.
