Working at SpaceX in Hawthorne, CA: 19 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Hawthorne, CA Area

"Working at space x was definitly mind blowing at the start. They offer a lot of cool extras from food to coffee which was awesome. When it comes to work load it was different. You find yourself staying later that originally assigned and that normally wouldnt be an issue if it wasnt for the fact that they do it last minute. The straight up no concern for employees by management is saddening. They squeeze the life out of you until its too late basically."

"I worked for spaceX for the last 4.5 years. All in all it was great experience and I would recommend anyone with a strong thirst for hard work and cutting edge technology to work there. They are a fast moving company with an ever changing environment which can sometimes be challenging but never boring."

"Let's move forward and get to work"

"IIiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii"

"I worked for SpaceX for one and a half years. I love the work I do there and what impact the work has done for the world."

"10/10 would recommend. Not many people can say they have got the chance to work for an organization that's helping make life (as we know it) multi-planetary."

"Long hours, low pay. Lots of less than qualified people in charge. Good benefits."

"As a vehicle engineering intern I got to lead the design of a complex mechanical system, and received plenty of support from my manager and team."

"Pro: Lots of work but limited room for expansion Cons: Limited work/life balance"

"The pay at SpaceX sucks. The moral is always low because management throughout the company all the way to the top does not value employees. They want to be a Google-like campus, but it will never happen here. Most below managemant-level get paid between 18.00 - 21.00 an hour. Turnover is high due to this reason."

"Long hours imposed for the engineer in a creative field and not much support. Sr. management has had 3 members replaced in one year."

"I've interned for Spacex, and I found the projects I've worked on very interesting and challenging."

"I have worked at Spacex for 2 years. It is a good place to work but needs some work."

"I have work at SpaceX for 4 years now. I quickly moved up but I feel as if I have reached a ceiling."
