Vantaggi

A place to learn more about LOX rocket engine technology then anyone off the street. A good place to learn new skills on the job. The company feeds their employees every day and pays 850 a month for living expenses. Severance package is good

Svantaggi

Raises are low and reviewing process is based on what other co workers think of you which means if their is some co worker whom you do not work well with the management will listen to what they have to say and will not here your side of the story. If your ever placed on a PIP (Personal Improvement Plan) you should start seeking new employment because this is their way of generating a paper trail to fire you. Hr works against you when you have valid points and management does not support their employees or hears their concerns. The location is very remote and their is no real convince or amenities for 100 miles.

Vantaggi

4 weeks of PTO, good benefits, free drinks and snacks available at all locations.

Svantaggi

Leadership is inconsistent and often incompetent, company is very segmentalized and each group operates to different goals and schedules, poor communication with other parts of the company and with leadership. There is an overarching Yes-men mentality amongst leadership, and they often are just aiming to not be the group to be to blame for delays or failures. Personal growth is limited and widely ranges between different groups, there are areas where people see regular raises and promotions, while the majority seems to be told there are freezes or that they will be put in for next cycle. Pay has fallen behind, in the past they used to pay well and above the industry standard, but have not kept pace. Hours can be very long, again dependent on your group, some people may enjoy things like work from home or flexible schedules, but the majority are asked to work long hours and even support roles that could be remote are forced to be on site, despite a lack of space for the number of employees. I moved desks locations and buildings 6 times in 3 years. Re-orgs happen every 6 months, and create significant instability within the company, but rarely bring positive improvements. Good talent is not rewarded, and leaving quickly.
