Pluspunten
The experience in the field was good. If you are considering this job, think of it short term, and look for another job while you work there. Go somewhere where they will pay you more, and treat you better. SSL is a sinking ship.
Minpunten
- Horrible team work - Constant Lay Offs - Toxic work environment - No Morale - You will work Holidays and Weekends - Low wages in comparison to the Silicon Valley and the Bay Area (This is a Space Program!) - They will rush you and pressure you to get things done, even if it's the wrong way I was laid off once then they hired me again and I eventually quit. I've seen 20+ year engineers laid off at this place. This is a Satellite company in the Silicon Valley and they pay their employees Star Bucks wages. Then they want you to work over time. But when it comes time to can you, they'll do it in a heartbeat. I'm at a great company now. The reason I'm writing this review is to protect potential employees who are considering taking a job at SSL. Take your skills somewhere where they will appreciate you, and your work.
