Pros: Good benefits Free lunch Vacation stipend A few smart people

Cons: Terrible Management Toxic Culture Very biased middle management: If a manager doesn't like you, they will spin up stories to fire you. No WLB

Pros: Fast-paced environment, with really interesting problems to work on from a mission, robotics, and GNC perspective. The business is only growing. I have a strong belief that the company is going to grow and do very well in the future. Some of the smartest people I have ever met work here. You can learn a lot if you talk to the right people.

Cons: There has been a culture shift with the growth taking place. I know the company will land on its feet, but the tech feel is dwindling on a lot of the projects. Most of management is Palantir adjacent, which makes it very difficult to move up in level. There are a few with the mentality of "train someone for your current position," which is amazing, but most are too overworked to be good managers. Expect work-life balance to be pretty bad for most teams. You'll work hard but learn a lot.

Pros: I get to work on super exciting products solving needs for a variety of customers. I get to see my work in the field, and how the changes I make impact system performance. It is quite rewarding. Benefits are also really good. Free food, gym, office quality, healthcare, vacation bonus, yada yada – I got the whole deal.

Cons: Things can change quickly (requirements, deliverables), and sometimes this yields crunchtime. But honestly, this can be what makes the work quite enjoyable.
