Pros

I had a good boss who cared about those who worked for him.

Cons

Pay wasn't great. Arconic doesn't care about the people working for it. They also claim to promote safety first, but this isn't reflected in practice or expectations. Lack of attention to detail in engineering. Unqualified people are often promoted beyond their ability and sometimes blamed for subsequent failure. It's a company basing itself on innovation after having spun off from Alcoa, but that innovation isn't better than competitors; there is little differentiation and possibly some loss of competitiveness due to reduction of vertical integration.

Pros

Flexibility to work from home occasionally Bimonthly (or more) technical training and information sessions

Cons

Senior Management (MCS) does not acknowledge employee concerns and are more concerned with their own appearance Engagement Managers are constantly struggling for power plays and lose sight of project deliverables Excessive project hours which eliminate any kind of work-life balance Clients will often change and edit reports in order to not look bad in front of management
