Pros
Really great quality of life, ability to work from home sometimes, 4x10s or 9x9s, generally nobody works Fridays, and generally good people to work with. They even have a pension after 5 years, and offer a unique vacation purchase plan. The mission is amazing.
Cons
Management is bad. There are a high number of directors and managers that came from Honeywell Kansas City in the contractor transition in 2017. They can generally be lumped into 3 categories: good (rare), golden child smoke-and-mirror managers who are good at making it seem like they're improving anything and they don't actually have a clue, and formerly low-level people who were promoted to join MSTS at levels well above their capabilities and competence. Techniques used in managing manufacturing are good for managing manufacturing, but are not working so well when being blindly applied to all other areas. Nearly two years after the transition, directors are still fumbling to translate vision into actionable and consistent guidance.
