SpaceX reviews

Working at SpaceX can be exciting at first, but the reality sets in quickly — there’s little to no work-life balance. Long hours and mandatory overtime are the norm, even when work is slow. It’s never an 8-hour day; management would rather keep you on-site than let you go home early. Breaks and lunches are tightly monitored, and you can’t even scan for food unless you’re officially on break. The culture often feels more like a sweatshop than a place that values its employees’ time or well-being. The only reason a majority of people stay is for the stock options, which can be great long-term, but they come at the cost of personal time and energy. The company’s mission is inspiring, but the day-to-day reality wears most people down.

No room to make a mistake, they will get on your case, including termination. Pay is on lower end compared to other companies. High turnover rate. You get to know someone and they might not be there next week. Supervisor plays big favoritism, which can make you love going to work or hate going into work.
