Working at The Aerospace in El Segundo, CA: 15 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in El Segundo, CA Area

"It is a large R&D company whose main client is the US Air Force. It is a quasi-government entity,(thus the ".org" extension) but it is run as a private company. It has many, many organizational protocols, that are somewhat overwhelming to learn the first six months on the job, but once learned and experienced, it was fine. My particular group within the Aerospace Corp, Facilities Design and Construction, was a great team of hard-working staff that worked very well as a team. Most personalities got along well. As with any large organization, there are internal "politics" to maneuver. But probably no different than any large organization. I enjoyed my 5 years at TAC, as an agency contract worker."

"Aerospace is an excellent high technology company that takes good care of their people; they are an invaluable resource to the US Space Industry."

"Great people and opportunities, but notorious for being slow-paced and getting bogged down by rules and requirements put in place long ago. Behind the tech curve."

This is a great company to work for and I highly recommend it if you are interested in space systems, govt. oversight, and program management."
