      Challenging engineering work, epic rewards

      Pros

      The full engineering experience is available here for the intrepid and ambitious individual. Design and build complex and meaningful structures-without the overwhelming structure and bureaucracy of large engineering firms. Most designs get tested at or near their design loads nearly immediately, so it is not for the faint.

      Cons

      Work at SpaceX requires commitment and enthusiasm for the work. I'm not sure anyone can really be happy here without appreciating the CEO's vision for the company. If you (and your family) are not comfortable with long hours and intense pressure be cautious about coming here.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - high level of responsibility - extremely strong sense of mission from all employees - projects are flown shortly after completion - helpful coworkers - minimal bureaucracy

      Cons

      - there's so much to learn, onboarding can be intimidating - the hours aren't that bad for young people with fewer responsibilities, but they're longer than most other places
