Pros

Everyone is very focused and helpful. The hours aren't as crazy for software development as it is for the other developers, though it definitely is not a 9 to 5. There's always something to do, even as an intern. I think I have had maybe 2 hours total when I had nothing to do during my entire 12 weeks at SpaceX. Everything I made was used by the company and I could see who was using it.

Cons

Writing software for ERP isn't particularly challenging. The culture is also such that you may feel somewhat burdened to deliver results, which can be stressful for some.
