Pros

Still a relatively good benefit package Lots of talented engineering professionals with a good mix of older experienced professionals and bright young employees

Cons

SCCT senior management in Scottsdale has lost focus. Needham engineering staff, once proud to be a part of a dynamic team designing a product line that led the division in sales revenue, now honestly believe that their management is actively planning to kill the entire product line. Although there are a lot of things that could be done more efficiently or cost-effectively, employees have seen what happens to people who attempt to drive change. They don't work here anymore! In my 22 years working for this company, I have never seen such weak management and low morale. The current culture is toxic.

Pros

Good work life balance Projects matter for our war fighters Most co-workers are competent and dedicated More work than people, and moving to other engineering jobs is possible

Cons

Some numbskulls seem to get into senior positions. A "Consolidation" of buildings is underfunded, poorly planned, and drives chaos. The push to squeeze every nickel of efficiency means that there isn't always money for equipment or team building events (below the VP level).
