      Awesome company with lots of growth

      Pros

      9/80 is very accommodating to work/life balance. Leadership can be slow to change/adapt but everyone does. New products developed with a very aggressive growth plan. Senior leadership wants to see this company succeed. The owners are will to invest money into the company to see it move into the future. Veteran friendly. Overall, awesome company to work for!

      Cons

      Pay is often slow to catch up to industry standard but it eventually does. The company has not yet adapted for Millennial workers, very military centric (not always a bad thing, but it could drive away young talent).

      Great company, Management integrity in question

      Pros

      Work-life flexibility, fitness center, pension, vacation time off, Vanguard 401k company match contribution, no micro-managing. Great culture.

      Cons

      No-micromanaging, yes, many staff members need this. Lack of integrity, band-aid fixes and lying. Management rewards poor work ethic with annual awards and cash bonuses. Hard workers are the unsung heroes. Poor values.

      Pros

      Relatively good job security due to robust drone sales. Challenging work, at least from what I can see initially. Good people, at least at my level.

      Cons

      Company structure, and news not always evident, at least in my area. Product documentation doesn't always seem easy to discover.
