Pros

Dino is great, the mission is great, and the lunch is free. Thanks for your service big Dino These are literally the only Pros.

Cons

There appear to be significant gaps in experience and accountability across several departments. In one instance, a newly hired manufacturing engineer (at a senior compensation level) frequently relied on technicians and inspectors for guidance on basic disposition decisions and work order processes. This created confusion in ownership and slowed issue resolution. There seems to be a disconnect between title, compensation, and demonstrated competency in certain roles. From a quality management standpoint, a substantial investment (approximately $300,000) was made in an inspection system that ultimately was not implemented or utilized effectively. Despite this outcome, there did not appear to be meaningful accountability or evaluation of the return on investment. This raised concerns about decision-making processes and oversight. When concerns about leadership effectiveness and quality risks were raised, HR involvement did not lead to a transparent resolution. Instead, the outcome felt discouraging to those attempting to raise process-related concerns. This has created hesitation among employees about speaking up regarding operational risks. There also appear to be rapid promotions within certain roles without clearly communicated qualifications or performance benchmarks. Greater transparency in advancement criteria would improve trust across teams. Additionally, there is a lack of standardized engineering documentation practices. Work instructions and design documentation are often created using general office software rather than industry-standard engineering tools, which can create inconsistencies and confusion in production environments.

Pros

Good work environment with a fast-paced culture. Company offers solid benefits and paid lunches. Interesting projects and opportunities to gain experience in a growing organization.

Cons

Culture can feel cliquey, with advancement often favoring employees from specific backgrounds (e.g., Tesla or Firefly). Growth opportunities appear uneven—some are promoted quickly while others struggle to get interviews. Contractors may experience unexpected extensions, and prior compensation agreements are not always met. Conversion to full-time can involve a pay cut, and timing may limit access to benefits such as holidays and company programs.
