Pros

revolutionary technology if it can actually work.

Cons

lots and lots of Elon wannabes at this sweatshop. self-anointed revolutionaries to the space industry but so far have proven bad company culture mixed with specious technology that can't pass basic muster for space worthiness. there's a reason people are leaving after finding out what really goes on at the lab. and they're inflating the reviews with 5 stars at that other website and taking down everything on google...

Pros

Our technology is so cool, inspiration abounds nearly every day. Even in the short time I’ve been on board the team has impressed me a ton with their approach to solving problems rapidly and intelligently, and we’ve continued adding some incredible people on top of that base too. I for one see potential not just for our ability to make rockets, but also larger objects and printing in other industries - which is also on track to a long term vision on Mars. It’s a fun and invigorating atmosphere, we work hard (and I think this will continue to escalate quite a bit as we get close to launch) but the new learning and team camaraderie is worth it.

Cons

Honestly hard pressed to think of many. We’re at an inflection point with hardware test and delivery that I’m eagerly anticipating the next few months of tests so we can see how close we are to launch. Some team members seem like they are more cautious than others in driving hard to launch, but we just got a new factory and I think that energy will really push everyone along at the same rapid pace. A lot of people have launched rockets before and know this ambiguity is normal and to push through, and people that haven’t seem very excited to be a part of launching our rocket. The majority of the team is exceptionally driven, a few people here and there could use more accountability on schedule deliverables but engineering leadership is pretty effective at reining this in, in a way that’s positive.

Pros

Getting to be a part of and help shape the cutting edge of aerospace technology is certainly fulfilling, to start. We have a great mix of younger engineers and more experienced professionals, and it's a joy to come to work and learn something new every day. I feel privileged to work with individuals who are not only top of their fields but also good people.

Cons

Not many. Sometimes the fast pace of a startup can make staying up-to-date a little challenging.
