Pros

Work on the cutting edge of aerospace technology. Challening projects and opportunities for innovation. Flexible work hours, friendly culture. Excellent retirement benefits. Work with some of the most brilliant people in the industry.

Cons

Mentoring could be better, kind of a sink or swim environment. Not many options for advancement. High employee contribution to health care premium. Non profit ,so not many options for bonuses. Raises are low, unless you develop something like warp drive.

Pros

Interesting work, good colleagues, company is supportive and there is good work/life balance. There are leadership opportunities for those to want them. Pay is competitive.

Cons

Raises haven't kept up with inflation. It's hard to break in as a new employee. There is a lot of change, mostly for the better but a lot of change.
