SpaceX reviews

- Lots of responsibility given to interns. Typically given their own project or two to work on over their time. If you need parts, you get parts. If you need testing, test away. You get full exposure to all the resources of the company, and are treated like just another employee. - Food on site is great and cheap (even if they have been raising the prices a bit). - Everyone is young. Groups will often take midweek breaks to play frisbee or sail in the evenings. - Good balance of casual and professional work environment. Show up with a clothes on, a willingness to work hard, and meet lots of people to get the job done, and you'll do great.

SpaceX is by far the most interesting internship I've ever had. SpaceX trusts interns with valuable projects that will actually go towards company improvement. In my past two internships, which were with two different oil and gas operator companies, I felt as if my projects were just a way to waste my time. As an intern, my input is valued and I am treated with the respect that any full time employee would receive. I feel respected as a female engineer, and that my ideas are taken seriously which can be hard in other industries.
