If it were just about the internship, I would absolutely choose SpaceX (especially because I am already an SDE intern at Amazon now). I am mainly wondering where might be a better place to start my career if the internship turns into a full-time offer. SpaceX fulfills my passions, but I’m worried that it’d be smarter to go with Amazon. #software #engineering #spacex #amazon
Go with SpaceX. Opportunities to work at SpaceX are fewer compared to being able to work at Amazon at a later date.
You should read the AMA that SpaceX software teams did on r/SpaceX . Should know if that aligns with your interest.
Depends if you want to be a government employee
Go with your passion, SpaceX; as others' have said you can move to Amazon anytime.
I don’t think you should worry about converting it to full time. Try spacex it’s a cool place. If you don’t like it you can always go to Amazon. They’re hiring a lot of people anyway and there is a lot to read about how it is to work there. Definitely not as much for spacex So I’d say use the internship to get a few for how it’s like there and you can always check out some other place later And it’s not like you’re missing on a lot by passing on Amazon internship offer for one at spacex lol ...
