Cyclic hiring and layoffs - Associate Director Pratt & Whitney Employee Review

P&W does not look ahead for profit goals. One year P&W hires hundreds of people then the next year they layoff people. They have had three layoffs in 1.5 years with a bunch of new-hires within this time frame. It is not a consistent/stable company with the threat and stress of being laid off frequently. If you want stability, this is not the company to work for. If you want to get into the industry for a few years, then Pratt & Whitney is acceptable.
