Pros

Young,diverse energetic company, with a great outlook and ready to take on all challenge(s)..When hard working people assemble great results will prevail and I believe SpaceX is on track to make that happen.

Cons

Fragmented at times , needs to stop the ride and look at the processes, re-evaluate and then back to the task at hand. Also Expansion although a positive thing has its temp setbacks with access to areas and or Location updates and time needs to be given to make the adjustments.

Pros

SpaceX gives you the ability to work on some of the best engineering projects in the word, while at the same time allowing you to be autonomous and creative.

Cons

The company is becoming a little bit bigger and as such, some stricter processes and procedures are being introduced that stifle come of the earlier creativity. Good roles can still be found or worked into, but bureaucracy is creeping in.

Pros

Many amenities and employee perks. A very fun place to work that makes you feel like you're hanging out with friends having fun, eating, free coffee and frozen yogurt, chef prepared meals every meal of the day (breakfast, lunch, & dinner served in 3 on-site cafes). On-site car washes, attraction discount tickets, commuter benefits, all medical/dental/vision benefits are paid in full by the company for you and you get to select any medical plan you want (HMO, EPO, PPO). SpaceX also covers your life, ad&d, etc. insurance coverage costs. A great, fun place to work.

Cons

Long hours, but the environment is fun and set up to keep you comfortable and liking the work atmosphere. It's comfortable and fun and there are so many amenities that you have everything you need at work.
