Pros

Seriously cutting edge tech, one of the few companies one can work for developing rockets, space systems, launching regularly, and successfully.

Cons

Barista coffee isn't really barista coffee. There is no barista, but just barista machines which we use to make our coffee. The gym is essentially a hotel-type gym which feels like it's there so the company can say they have a gym rather than being meaningful gym. The workspace is congested with rows of desks and the next person about 1m away with no separation. People hold meetings at their desks whether online or in-person which is distracting and noisy. Parking is a nightmare.
