Pros

+Nice people, especially outside of work. +Good overtime pay.

Cons

-Almost dystopian work environment, with plenty of manipulation and CYA behavior. -Work came in bursts, but there was a lot of downtime where I was basically paid to surf the Internet. -Deals with military and some big airlines, so there's a lot of absurd requirements that aren't really necessary but have to be met anyway. -Work can become very run-of-the mill after a while. Very few people I knew did much new; most just did the same old stuff they did on the previous product on the new product. -Way too many project managers when I was there. Don't know if that's still the case.

Pros

You have to wear a lot of hats but it's really good experience and you have a lot of decision making autonomy.

Senior leadership sometimes lacks strategic vision.

Pros

An interim CEO named in January 2026 is bringing new ideas, but the culture is toxic.

Cons

There are no new products in the pipeline that are designed by the company. Products being produced now are end of life. Revenue is down. The leadership needs to be replaced, they lack accountability for any of their actions.
