Pros

It was a fantastic place to work, with great colleagues and a wonderful management team. All departments worked together to create an incredible work environment that made everyone feel that they were part of something worth building up.

Cons

Only one worth mentioning and that is the unscrupulous nature of the Board of Directors of UTC, the company that bought over the original company. They reassured everyone by engaging the company's IT team to push "Happy Family" videos to every employee's computer. They told everyone that no one would lose their jobs and that we were going to be one big family. Less than a year later, they retrenched more than a third of the worldwide staff, starting with the 1,000 IT staff that helped them push their videos.

Pros

Regular yearly merit raises from 3-4%. Out of cycle promotions common if you demonstrate positive performance under higher than typical workloads or time constraints. Value your experience with standard company software, technology, and processes. Great place to start within the defense industry. The emphasize passing down the knowledge of experienced engineers to the younger employees.

Cons

Training can be lacking if more seasoned employees do not have the bandwidth. Deadlines can either be hard to meet on short notice or not given a hard-set deadline at all. Learning curve can take sometimes before real contributions can be made to some projects.
