Pros
So far, SpaceX is the only company putting their money where their mouth is. When VPs or Directors want something done, it gets done right away. Engineers do get treated very well, despite the long hours. The company is very young, so seeking for career advice is limited but it makes it more comfortable for those coming out of school. Easy to move up in the ladder if you make the right friends.
Cons
Working with certain groups or at different sites is like being back in High School. If you are not part of a click, you will be cut. Engineering leads don't have any managerial experience. Despite having a strong technical background, if they do not like you personally, they will find a way to get rid of you permanently.
