Pros
Here's my list of reasons why SpaceX is an amazing place to work
- You get to work on things that directly impact the mission.
- The company goal is to advance space technology and enable people to live on other planets, it's right on the site
- Everyone is brilliant, driven, and will be the best people you've ever worked with.
- The work is challenging and there are literally endless opportunities if you want to put in the time.
- Management is awesome, they work hard and are easy to work with.
- You get to watch rocket launches and all sorts of other crazy stuff from mission control.
- SpaceX employees are highly sought after, but you wont want to leave
- You get to walk around a rocket factory and see rockets being built.
- Great food options like cafeteria style, salad bar, restaurant style and 4+ food trucks. Also free frozen yogurt and the food is all subsidized, so you're only paying $3-5 per meal.
- There are flown rocket parts all over the office.
- The first landed orbital rocket is in front of the building
- You can give friends and family tours of the factory.
Cons
Los Angeles is an extremely expensive place to live compared to the rest of the country.
