Pros
The leaders at Cubic genuinely care for the employees, customers, and community. Employees are encouraged to share ideas, innovate, take ownership, collaborate, and find solutions for the company and customers. This has been even more evident during the Coronavirus pandemic. Employees that are able to work remotely have been accommodated to ensure that they are safe and continue supporting the customers. Additionally, one of Cubic's manufacturing facilities, Cubic de Mexico, repurposed sewing equipment to make face masks for global employees and customers. The staff also delivered masks to local hospitals and first responders. Other efforts included making medical ventilators and creating a 3D immersive training to prepare medical staff to operate ventilators. I am very proud to be part of an innovative company that cares for its employees, customers, and community.
Cons
The nature of the contract business; however, this is a challenge that all Defense contractors face.
