Vantaggi

You can still find some pretty incredible people who work here. Lot's of friendly, hardworking, sharp engineers that get to work on really inspiring projects.

Svantaggi

The company went on an irresponsible spending spree after the last fundraising round in 2022 where the company was significantly overvalued. The company is now living paycheck to paycheck as it struggles to raise more money to keep the lights on. With no product or revenue, investors are understandably worried about sinking in any more money. After the first flight of Terran 1, the company completely lost its way. It went from an innovative 3D printing company launching Terran-1 in record time, to a mediocre performance Terran-R that has no realistic launch date, or feasible way to ship from California to Florida. Even if Relativity could get their next rocket to the launch pad, it will hit a brick wall when Starship starts flying and Falcon 9 completely gobbles up any remaining launch customers. Executive leadership has no clue how to navigate out of this tailspin, and have been so far removed from the day to day operations that they wouldn't even know where to start. With no more innovation to their manufacturing after 3D printing was proven ineffective for the fuselage, there isn't a compelling reason to bet on Relativity Space. Most of the good engineers know this and have left the company.

Vantaggi

The prop test team at Stennis is awesome. The people are super cool, and the work is engaging. There's a nice balance of hands on work and technical design work.

Svantaggi

Don't work here if you never want to put in a day longer than 8 hours, but in reality though the job is fun enough that you probably won't mind the extra time.

Vantaggi

Amazing benefits & on-site amenities. Generous PTO, Sick and holiday schedule. Great place to learn and get foot in the door of aerospace. Great hub for young talent industry wide you are given a lot of autonomy of your work day.

Svantaggi

Toxic leadership & senior management. Promotions and raises are not determined by merit, the company allows nepotism which is rampant in every aspect of the company. Would much rather turn a blind eye than address long term issues with a toxic work environment. The minute you stop being a yes man and start challenging the status quo in the name of efficiency, you are targeted by leadership and subsequently pushed out one way or another. You'll be fine if you are personal friends of management.
