3 month review - Raptor Machining
3 month review - Raptor Machining
- A very rewarding job
- A good variety of things in the job where every week is different
- You have the freedom to come up with and work on projects that impact the company
- When you ask, people are happy to teach you about what they do and there are a lot of smart people to learn from
- Like any SpaceX job, it is a lot of hours.
- You very much so get thrown into the fire at the start, but it gets better after a few months.
Onboarding needs some work. There is a lot of random knowledge that you need in order to really get going, and a lot of it has either hard-to-locate or poor documentation.
