      Long Time SpaceX Employee

      Pros

      You get the chance to change the course of humanity, improve life on earth, and be a part of an organization greater than the sum of its parts. The caliber of people that stick with it are battle hardened warriors that can do the impossible.

      Cons

      There is a constant feeling that you can never do enough or that your best won't be good enough.

      Pros

      Work with extremely intelligent bunch of people. Allowed to and encouraged to think out the box for solutions to engineering challenges. Rapidly changing environment and if thats something you like, this is the place for you.

      Cons

      Horrible work life balance. If you have a family then you are in trouble if you consider family comes first.. Lot of brown nosing and old boys club attitude. Not only should you get the job done you should project the image of being busy all the time.

      Management?

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The management structure is super flat which makes for faster approvals up the food chain....

      Cons

      Most managers are legacy employees....just because they've been here "since the beginning" definitely doesn't mean they should be managing other people. The flat management structure also means that some managers often have huge teams of vastly different specialties....things often fall through the cracks.
