Pluspunten

The people you will work with are all cool, the work you do will be awesome, you’ll learn very quickly.

Minpunten

The pay structure is broken, technicians earn more than more qualified engineers who take on more risk. Engineers are asked and expected to work above the contracted amount of hours for no extra compensation. There is also no standard bonus which is odd for what will be a publicly listed company with a yearly review and rigid career development and pay bands. The company also hires middle managers with little to no expertise or understanding of the product which results in issues with proper resource allocation and escalation of technical risks.

Hi there, We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. We are stoked to hear that you are enjoying the workplace environment and that you have great relationships with other employees here at Rocket Lab. We appreciate the feedback regarding salary. We do have a number of people who come over from overseas where wage and conditions are different, however we have had our remuneration bench-marked, and for the most part we are on par with our local markets and where we are not, we are working hard to change this. Thanks again for the feedback and for all your hard work! -Rocket Lab People & Culture
