If you can survive here, you can survive anywhere. Made me a millionaire through stock appreciation over the years.
Absolute mayhem, at least in the Starship org. Ridiculous deadlines and designs seem half-assed to meet them. Expect to take on 2-3 people’s workload. Your sanity will be tested, but you will be rewarded if you can last 4-5 years and vest.

I didn't even try to negotiate as I had offers from other companies for over 100k a year m...Read more

Do they provide sign on bonus (not relocation cost) Is it do-able to be a single income with a family with that? Base: $120k RSU: $210 (5...Read more

Last month I had an offer from SpaceX and Uber. Though SpaceX had my ideal role duties, career “story”, and mission I ended up going with Uber as location was just a better fit for me (SF Bay Area), and I was honestly a little afraid of SpaceXs WLB though my role was more on the business side so I w...Read more
