General Atomics Project Engineering Supervisor reviews

This is a Family Business. Very little top down communication in the company. Predator/Reaper product line has probably run its course. Morale is generally not very good among the rank and file No empowerment of employees. Power is closely held at top.

- despite significant growth over the past decade, many elements within the company continue to resist *growing up* to a level of maturity that should be expected of an organization this size - the company's limited budget for annual raises over the past ~5 years causes the average employee's compensation to fall behind market value within a few years unless the employee or his/her manager takes specific action to maintain equity - persistence of small-company behavior: e.g. senior executives remain too involved in detailed design decisions, rather than establishing clear requirements and empowering the design teams to achieve them - mediocre process definition / implementation / consistency: too much reinventing the wheel - company is struggling with recent enterprise-wide MRP software change to SAP
