Pros

You are building a rocket that goes into space multiple times! It’s a rewarding experience!

Cons

One of the worst companies to work at if you have a family and if you live in CA! The hours are ridiculously long, and you are embarrassingly underpaid. The company says their pay is competitive…yes they are competitive if they comparing themselves to McDonald’s. Great company if this is your First real technical job, but if you come with experience, then you are better off looking at other aerospace companies that will pay you much better for your experience.
