Pros

Get to see some cool stuff but ultimately, an aerospace company here to serve stake holders

Cons

Cut benefits to their education program mid school year with less than 2 months notice to find funding elsewhere. Then held a webinar where they failed to see how severely this impacts their employees. Regardless if you were in a approved graduate program you are now limited to 10k/yr which covers about 2 courses. It’ll take something like 8 years to complete a MS at that rate. Also still trying to enforce the 2 year retention liability if you took any sort of assistance even if you drop out cause you can no longer afford school with the NG backing. I would expect there will be some legal issues coming soon. Pulling a bait and switch on your own employees is not a good look.

Pros

Not much pros but talented coworkers.

Cons

I joined expecting a long-term career and initially had a positive experience. Unfortunately, the culture changed significantly after leadership transitions. Micromanagement increased, decision-making became highly centralized, and employee morale steadily declined. Many experienced employees and managers left during my time there, making it difficult to maintain continuity and trust within the organization. The work itself was meaningful, and I had the opportunity to support important projects with talented colleagues. However, recognition, career growth, and employee retention did not appear to receive the same level of attention as process, reporting, and management oversight. My layoff was communicated as unrelated to performance, which was appreciated. However, after years of contribution and institutional knowledge, the overall experience left me feeling that employees were viewed as replaceable rather than valued long-term assets.
