Pros

Woodward has an excellent health insurance plan, stock option and is a company that will be around a long time.

Cons

On the surface Woodward appears to be a company that takes pride in its employees. However, management and human resources have managed to create a cult like atmosphere; one that co-workers are afraid to talk or communicate to each other. It is a CYA atmosphere.

Pros

Great with previous leadership. But then...

Cons

New leadership is not as dedicated to employees as previous (although bonuses have been better). New middle management there is a lot of nepotism. Once a stable company, layoffs have been a common occurrence since COVID.
