Pros

There are some fantastic engineers and scientists here who are ding groundbreaking work.

Cons

They tout perks, like bring your dog to work. Unless you work on New Glenn off campus. Facilities believes mini fridges are an electrical fire hazard and has banned them. Our gym memberships have been revoked starting in January so we are encouraged to use the headquarters gym with no parking and a totally unreliable shuttle bus service to and from the gym. And we have no parking. We have less and less decision making authority. Leadership is instilling processes with little forethought of the effect and how these ill thought processes are slowing progress. So, we have turned into a large aerospace company with the worst processes and decisions in the industry and have sub-par facilities.

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
