Pros
History of cool space flights with the older vehicles designed by Scaled Composites.
Cons
Recent layoffs in July 2025 laid off experienced engineers who had worked at the company for years in favor of keeping less experienced, lower paid engineers who are less likely to speak out against safety violations when the company orders the safety workflow/ processes to be bypassed in order to rush a product to be ready sooner. This company is misleading the public about how far along it is on its programs. The company leadership is out of touch with the reality of the programs they have dictated. Virgin Galactic is dishonest.
