      Pros

      -Great team culture -The opportunity to progress your career quickly and work on the big stuff -Awesome perks (stock, food, coffee, team events, additional leave entitlements and more) -The ability to be yourself (super diverse group of people from all walks of life and from across the globe) -Exposure in a global company -Exciting and engaging work -I have a great leader who inspires me and makes me want to be the best version of myself -Can not stress this enough, the people are AMAZING!

      Cons

      -If you don't want to push or challenge yourself, Rocket Lab isn't for you. If you want to progress your career quickly and work on some incredible projects, then definitely get involved -Rocket Lab is not big on working from home, but I am less productive from home so I would rather be in the office any way (and I get to hang out with my team and get barista coffee and free snacks, so lots of benefits to coming in :D )

      Awesome Work and Endless Opportunities to Accelerate your Career

      Pros

      Employees are proud of the company and want it to succeed. All engineering managers are themselves engineers - you never have to answer to project managers who don't understand the technical aspect of your job, and they are always able to provide technical guidance and feedback. Everyone gets to work on cool and exciting projects that will have a direct impact on missions to space.

      Cons

      The Space Industry as a whole has the ability to get more time and effort from their employees without explicitly requesting it, due to the overlap between work and personal interests. People will often choose to work long and hard hours, but they'll do so with a smile on their face because they enjoy it for the most part.

      Hi there, Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback with us. We’re glad to hear you are enjoying your time at Rocket Lab. We agree that we have a passionate group of employees here, and acknowledge and appreciate that without their hard work and dedication, we would not have been able to achieve many of the great things we’ve accomplished as a company. We believe that collaboration is the key to achieving greatness, which is why we tend to have teams working together onsite. However in the recent climate, we understand that working from home is a good option to have to support the wider team. Thank you again for your feedback, we look forward to watching Mission 24 hit the skies with you soon! -Rocket Lab People and Culture
