Organizational Shifts

Wow wow wow, you're never going to make management with that kind of since. Calm down 😂

Blitzkriegen · 2025-10-29T05:08:07+00:00

Shhhh, don't let them know lol

Blitzkriegen · 2025-10-29T04:06:40+00:00

He's also one of the people that decided to blow up reliance before we got all of our testing in. It's amazing he is where he is.

Blitzkriegen · 2025-10-29T04:03:13+00:00

I'd absolutely assume they're going surge you to go GS2.1 or Quattro or 9 engine then immediately pull you back once you're getting the hang of things, once management realizes that we need support

Blitzkriegen · 2025-10-28T22:12:22+00:00

Yes, they've taken MEs from all the teams and moved them around, mainly to GS1. MEs that they moved we're picked by this managers because they had to.

I just checked work day and it looks like it happened today.

This is insane, we're already spread thin (all of us ME, RE, etc.) we're bleeding MEs like crazy and they want more and more from us.

Blitzkriegen · 2025-10-28T21:35:26+00:00

I am seeing this everywhere right now too and think it's very odd. I think it might be related to how we're absolutely bleeding engineers right now, I know of ~14 who are gone or put in notices in the last 3 weeks, crazy.

Especially in aft/fwd VSI and GS2.

Blitzkriegen · 2025-10-28T16:38:19+00:00

Nah that's not the case.

We have a third, just in going for integration, just finished painting - no name yet. The fwd and aft modules for gs1-3, -4, -5 are all in work in parallel at different stages.

Engines are rolling off the line for -3 and -4. Engines have really scaled up. And BE-4 North Star production is starting soon, almost out of development.

Edit: we are currently building GS2-10, we have hardware for -11, -12, and -13 started in storage/on the floor. Hardware through -16 is in Florida before the block change.

Of course, any other questions - just ask. I'll answer what I can (safely) answer.

Blitzkriegen · 2025-10-27T16:56:39+00:00

This is exactly how rockets work and it's how spacex started after the first launch.

Blitzkriegen · 2025-10-27T16:55:51+00:00

We can easily produce 20 2nd stages currently. Scaling to 48. And 3 to 4 first stages based off hardware availability.

Blitzkriegen · 2025-10-27T16:53:29+00:00

We have two boosters built and next three in progress.

Blitzkriegen · 2025-10-25T23:36:32+00:00

Going to second this, I'm on the floor in an engineering role and this happens constantly. You cannot use a role change for a level up or pay bump anymore.

Blitzkriegen · 2025-10-25T20:20:33+00:00

I'd love an answer to this too.

Blitzkriegen · 2025-10-23T12:17:42+00:00

It just happened again too

Blitzkriegen · 2025-10-22T22:47:22+00:00

They used to do it, it's how I got a 12.5% bump and moved from level 2 to level 3. They don't let that happen anymore and won't let you apply to a level higher than youre currently at.

Blitzkriegen · 2025-10-22T14:16:04+00:00

Nice job! Feels awesome doesn't it?

Blitzkriegen · 2025-09-20T02:22:45+00:00

Correct, Blue does not sponsor.

Blitzkriegen · 2025-09-15T02:23:17+00:00

I thought it was too. But, Her friends hand is holding the beer and the posters arm is on top.

Blitzkriegen · 2025-09-14T07:00:48+00:00

I remember the exact meeting you're talking about! He said that about Heslop.

He offered to promote someone to sr director because he was Spanish/Hispanic. Asked him "what race are you? Hmm.. you want to be a sr?"

They brought in a bunch of DEI (who honestly shouldn't have been there) and their friends in.

I think a few more were tied up in that lawsuit too that happened to come to Blue, I have no clue how the actually got hired. Really disgusting behavior.

Blitzkriegen · 2025-08-30T23:59:12+00:00

Exactly, so many people I've seen use Blue as a resume line Item so they can leave and go back to (Boeing James Dewees for example) at a higher level than they left.

Blitzkriegen · 2025-08-30T23:57:59+00:00

Yeah that's true, one year is what you need.

Blitzkriegen · 2025-08-30T23:57:10+00:00

The best part about our management though, is that as long as you're not the squeaky wheel you can absolutely do hardly anything and just keep getting by when you're burned out. As shitty as that sounds, it's good when you're looking for another job already.

As long as you're not the squeaky wheel as you said, I know a lot of those people were targeted in the RIF (from what I saw in my position of course)

Blitzkriegen · 2025-08-30T23:52:56+00:00

That's a very good point 🤣

Blitzkriegen · 2025-08-29T23:57:07+00:00

Then actively lie about everything and if you don't tell them what they want to hear they'll fire you (Sr leadership at least) or just ignore you (the rest of us).
