Pros

* Room for growth * Problem solving * Proof big things have small beginnings * Personal growth in time management * Personal growth in meeting deadlines * You will be heard if you want to be * All complaints will be addressed if you so wish * We are the only ones who do what we do * We do more with less * All in house work * American made * No dependence on foreign nations * Your place in the company is completely up to you

Cons

I don't have Cons with the company but I do have Cons with individuals having poor work ethics when it comes to their responsibilities. These kinds of things are between the individuals and I don't feel i should take such liberty on personal matters. It's called chain of command, if you do not get results, work your way up the ladder until it does get addressed. I had complaints, I worked my chain of command and I see and feel results. If you have cons that bad is on you not the company. Take charge of your life like our CEO/COO did/does. You and only you can steer the perception of your own reality.

Pros

Good pay and benefits are a plus here for the area. The actual job itself is so far out there from any other job, we launch rockets into space, not many get to say that. I enjoy that our job is not repetition, something new all the time. overall though I do enjoy working here.

Cons

My drive to and from to work is probably the biggest for me. I also think our organization of day to day operations for jobs could be easily improved, a lot of time wasted. the 401k is not matched. I think for new employees need a better training program.
