Blue Origin reviews

The life has left this place. It’s depressinng to work here and the leaders that have come on board since Rob Meyerson have created a culture and environment that might look great from the outside and from the words they say but the reality is not good. At all. Company doesn’t care about it’s employees, so many manager egos to please that’s all you end up doing instead of actually making progress with the hardware.

When Bob Smith gave his first all-hands address to all of Blue in his new role as CEO, he started with two words that sent chills down my spine: "We're listening". tl;dr: You can guess by the fact I'm here writing a review on Glassdoor, joined by countless others, what I have concluded about that. This is something Rob Meyerson would have never, ever said. He would have never acknowledged that there was a distinct "we" (i.e. upper management) separate from the "we" that was all of Blue. He would have never bothered to say it at all -- he would have assumed it would have shown from his actions, and that it was his very first, basic responsibility as the leader of his company. All of my pertinent complaints about the state of the company stem from this one phrase.
