Pros
You get to have your hands on a rocket or spacecraft every day. That fact alone makes the job worth it. It's a fast paced environment and I would say about 85-90% of the employees are top of their field/highly driven individuals. After all my years in the military this is a very rewarding job.
Cons
Work-Life balance, there is none. At all. They do tell you this before you're hired on though so if you're not prepared for it you didn't pay attention. The down side to pretty much devoting your life to Space-X is that the pay is average-below average. I see a lot of Tech's/Engineers jumping ship for higher paying/less demanding jobs after SpaceX runs them into the ground.
