Pros

-Incredible benefits: unlimited sick time and PTO, 6% 100% retirement matching, healthcare, 9/80 schedule, etc. -My work (and a lot of other work) is classified, which means that it can never be done outside of work, making work hours ONLY 8-5. No work after I leave or on weekends! -Helpful, kind people who want you to succeed -Work is not incredibly difficult but hard and interesting enough that you have to exercise your brain often -Great pay

Cons

-They could use some more teaching at the beginning. The approach is to just throw you in, which for my first job was intimidating and difficult at first. But it did work out in the end, just after some emotional turmoil and thinking I'm too dumb for this job -Too much focus on quality assurance, logging your time, etc. Things would be more efficient if all of these things didn't need to be done

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
