Pros

A place to learn more about LOX rocket engine technology then anyone off the street. A good place to learn new skills on the job. The company feeds their employees every day and pays 850 a month for living expenses. Severance package is good

Cons

Raises are low and reviewing process is based on what other co workers think of you which means if their is some co worker whom you do not work well with the management will listen to what they have to say and will not here your side of the story. If your ever placed on a PIP (Personal Improvement Plan) you should start seeking new employment because this is their way of generating a paper trail to fire you. Hr works against you when you have valid points and management does not support their employees or hears their concerns. The location is very remote and their is no real convince or amenities for 100 miles.

Pros

Free cheese and yogurt. Some people are nice others will make sure you fail

Cons

No equity unless you like monopoly money. No IPO for Blue ever and liquidity events are just bonus event. No work life balance. Toxic leadership who do not care about but will lie to you as long as you serve their own purpose. Everyone is looking, DO NOT come here!!! You will lose years of your life stressed out, frustrated and nothing but an average salary to show for. There are better places out there for space work
