Pros

Great opportunity to deep dive into pretty much anything, they care about what you are interested in working on as a software engineer. It has been thoroughly enjoyable getting to learn as I go here straight out of uni. The salary I was hired at was competitive and the relocation bonus was much appreciated. Vacation and sick policy great.

Cons

As someone else commented: Cgrad program is touted as being a great benefit. In actuality they just split a normal raise into two. Low raises justified by "don't worry, you'll get another raise because of cgrad". Teams can be hit and miss.

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
