BAE Systems reviews

low communications across the chain of command

The pay is, and will never be, worth doing the job long term. The customer will not pay the company enough to compensate you for the amount of work you do. Management does their best, but because of the pay there is little they can do to meaningfully effect the change you will want to see. You will never get paid more for being a good analyst. In order to progress, you will need to shed your analytical work in lieu for management. When I got promoted, I got the same benefits package but had to pay more per month because I moved into a higher pay bracket, essentially making the raise useless.
