Pros

Intuitive Machines has done an excellent job creating hype about being a cool company.

Cons

In reality, the company is a sinking ship taking on water at a rapid speed. It may soon run out of money given its repeated mission failures. Numerous concerns make this a terrible workplace: 1. Complete lack of importance on technical competence. Ex NASA folks who are better off in retirement have been hired in bulk. All they do is waste valuable time discussing meaningless topics. 2. Management is focused on being politicians with NASA sponsors instead of doing the right thing. 3. Emphasis is on bravado and big talk rather than running programs that are successful. Two failed lunar landings is the track record out here. 4. Only focus is on building something for cheap even if it has no chance of working once launched.

Pros

- Really cool work; you get to work on projects that will literally go to space every day - Coworkers are passionate about the job - Always something new to learn

Cons

- Space is hard and space is slow; things can feel slow and people can be risk-averse, but that's just the nature of the industry - Compensation is probably just average
