Pros

Work with extremely intelligent team members who are the best of the best. That's it.

Cons

- Old school mentality. Zero progression or forward thinking. - Prides itself on being "inclusive and diverse" when its very, very far from that. Highly concerning that every leader here is a white male. - Employee voices mean NOTHING. We speak on issues and offer solutions but management is unwilling to make any improvements. - No hybrid or flex schedule - Growth + pay raise is near to impossible. - TERRIBLE LEADERSHIP. Not only with CEO + Board, but also department leadership. Overall a disaster, completely out of touch and offer no support. - Work life balance... what's that? - Processes... what's that? - Favoritism is a real thing here. They pick and choose when they want to follow a process or not. - Ambiguity is also, a real thing here. - Actually ask employees to write positive reviews on glassdoor to increase their score. -Don't drink the Kool-Aid. We all do in the beginning but quickly figure out the Kool-Aid is garbage.

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
