    I suggest to pass the interview, ask questions and then decide. I'm happy with my choice even though I had much bigger offers. I'd say this is opportunity of a lifetime, and at the same time you don't have to work here forever. Your choice.

      It is pretty good, you define how much you work. Some work 40 hours and are pretty successful, most software devs seem to work around 45-50, some are always at work, but that's their choice. There are and will be crunch modes each team once in a while too. Overall leadership is trying to move away devs from hero mentality towards more sustainable work load.

      40 hr work week is one that includes a holiday or two if your lucky. 55hr is what we are supposed to target now because burn outs were taking a toll.

    Experience and advaced degrees are under valued. Fresh grad = specialist tech @ SpaceX. Masters degree and 6 years experience elsewhere = entry level SpaceX engineer. PhD and 10 years experience elsewhere = Sr. SpaceX Egineer. What maters is how long you have been at SpaceX. $70k -$120k is the range you can expect in LA. Good Luck.

    Can anyone here share actual numbers and level? So far, we just have one person saying "less than other tech companies" and one saying "more than other tech companies" πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

    Not engineering, but I've heard SpaceX and Blue Origin get people post-MBA on the super cheap because many millennials would give an arm and a leg to work there. (Something about having a "fulfilling career"...)
