Leadership is a real mixed bag here
Working at Interstellar Technologies has its moments, but the leadership often makes things tougher than they need to be for us in software development. It's a mixed bag.
Some direct managers are solid, especially for remote Senior Software Engineer roles. You can find good people to work with who genuinely care about the project and team. The technical challenges in aerospace tech are often pretty engaging.
Upper management often feels out of touch. They make big decisions without getting input from the teams actually doing the work. This makes project planning chaotic and deadlines can shift constantly for the engineering department.
Listen to your technical teams more often, especially when setting project timelines. More transparency from top leadership would really help morale and improve project execution across all engineering functions.
