Pros

it's a rare opportunity for an RF Engineer to work in the satellite and space industry. Many of us have childhood dreams of looking at the moon and imagining being part of a mission. Joining this company gives you the chance to fulfill that dream, contribute to a mission, and truly be part of something that reaches orbit

Cons

If you have many pros, the cons will be negligible

Pros

Cool sounding industry to be part of at least.

Cons

I knew the place was toxic within the 1st week. Nobody seemed to even like each other and the US and New Zealand sides didn't work well together at all. I don't think I had a 1:1 the whole time I worked there.
