Pros

Unfortunately, there isn't much left that the company has going for it at the Bloomfield Headquarters.

Cons

Lack of sustainable work and inability to win new contracts because of an aging and very expensive workforce will eventually lead to the closing of the CT Composites and MRO (Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul) divisions at the Bloomfield Campus. The total disconnect between management and non-management has led to a void of meaningful communication and understanding between the two groups. This, in turn, has cultivated an atmosphere of discontent amongst non-management personnel and a feeling that management is dismissive of their needs and opinions or even that management simply doesn't care. Lastly, the two divisions are running on a skeleton workforce where the average employee's age is over 50 and most of those employees have been with the company for at least 10 years! While some people may find this a "pro", in the manufacturing industry - where contracts usually go to the lowest bidder - an old workforce is actually a hindrance to winning new long-term work!
