Pros

Castelion is the most talented, mission-driven team I’ve worked with. You’re building hardware that actually matters. No fluff, No busywork. Engineers are trusted with real ownership and empowered to move fast. The leadership is sharp, transparent, and deeply focused on execution. The culture is high-performance but low-ego—smart people who care about doing great work and having fun doing it. If you’ve ever wanted to work on defense tech with startup speed and SpaceX-level talent, this is it.

Cons

It’s not for everyone—things move fast and there’s little hand-holding. But if you’re self-driven and want to build something meaningful, it’s an incredible place to be.

Pros

Being a startup it gives you the opportunity and authority to build your department and program the way you think is best. You have a great deal of autonomy, responsibility, and expectations, but leadership is very supportive and engaging. They don't criticize you, or micromanage you. The C-suite is very engaged and transparent with the whole company. Everyone knows what is going on, what the main mission goal is, and how they can contribute to make it successful. Any blockers are met with teamwork on identifying the best route to remove them. Individuals are encouraged to contribute in any way possible to make the company a success and good environment to work in.

Cons

If you have never worked at a startup it can feel daunting. Some people like it, some don't. You will have a lot of responsibility and be expected to able to operate autonomously for the most part. If that is not your work style you might not enjoy it.
