Pros

We're changing the world! Lots of overtime?

Cons

60-80 hour workweeks for years on end. Management infighting leads to bonuses being paid to some but not all workers in the same position in the same unit. (When I left the difference was 10K) You're told to stay for mandatory overtime despite the fact that no more work is being done and you would be more productive in an 8 hours burst than the mandatory 10 or 12.

Pros

a large and young company with good commitment to improve the environment.

Cons

Not very collaborative working environment. Seem management following Elon's hero style as showing individual glory instead of team work. Also heavily using financial leverage to run the company money source due to large spending in capital funds for future growth.
