Pros

-Salary is fair -Really love the variety and opportunity my position provides. -Work with some great people (for now)

Cons

-Post merger we have lost our employee stock purchase program, company stopped contributions to our vision plan, reduced contributions to our dental plan. -Health insurance stayed the same paycheck contribution post merger but it got significantly worse in quality and cost per visit. I.E. it got much more expensive but management didn't want it to come across that way. -Changed our entire travel reimbursement structure. We bill our customers for meal and incidental per diem as is standard in the industry. The company no longer reimburses the meal per diem, we now have to justify actual expenses so the company can keep any portion not spent in any given day. If you travel for your position, this policy adds significant difficulty to your daily workflow and reduces incentive to leave your family for months out of the year. -In short, the company now values profit over absolutely everything including employee well being, employee retention, and long term financial health.

L3Harris Response

We saddened to hear you felt your experience with our total rewards left something to be desired. Our comprehensive benefits package provides choice, competitive pricing and value adds to meet employees’ different needs, budgets and lifestyles. We benchmark our plans each year against our direct competitors and the A&D industry. While others in our industry have moved toward only providing high deductible health plans, we continue to offer a traditional PPO medical plan option for employees who prefer predictable out-of-pocket costs for PCP, specialist, urgent and emergent care. We appreciate your time with us and thank you for your feedback.

Pros

Missions are impactful to the world Top talent in specialized fields Wonderful people Respectful environment

Cons

Processes and policies are not robust enough to support the large growth / merger, which leaves everyone operating in silos and interpreting things in their own ways Shared service model is not structured properly Not enough critical thinking around how budgets should be allocated for tools, capital, and salaries Higher level leaders are too in the weeds and not working on the harder strategic aspects Businesses are not aligned with common products to gain best synergies as all businesses fight to defend $s not what actually makes sense for the company (radios sharing same suppliers are in completely different segments; CCAs are built across 10+ different factories managed by different management teams instead of a couple of large COEs) All leaders felt unempowered due to lack of ownership of budgets. Budgets were set but then adjusted at further levels without any additional discussion of new targets and how to achieve. Then budgets would be reallocated a few months into year if you weren't demonstrating that you truly need it. This drove teams to spend heavy up front and not make the smartest decisions at times
