Pros

There’s is always something interesting to world on especially on IRAD teams. Management is always at least willing to listen to employee concerns even if they can’t necessarily do anything about it. The pay is decently competitive and they offer good benefits.

Cons

There is a consistent lack of process here. There’s no mentorship program for new engineers. On many projects it can sometimes feels like a free-for-all this is especially true for smaller programs, but also in big ones. There’s a constant lack of communication from upper management to the greater teams, sometimes it just feels like everyone is working in a bubble. Career advancement is slow and confusing. There’s a lot of high performers who get the short end of the stick to new hires.

Pros

Good pay, decent benefits and a great team to work with. Gained lots of experience working on all aspects of LAVs. Plenty of travel opportunities for those with the freedom to do so.

Cons

Plenty of middle management to deal with which created a lot of inefficiencies and red tape.

Cons

- Highly Unstable Job roles - They hire you saying its a 5 year contract and you can make a career out of it and then fire you down the lane without even a second thought. DO NOT JOIN THEM - Stone-age Product development. Management and Mind set still set in Old-medieval-times. Are not open to new tech improvements on CAD and technologies that can improvise production and assembly. -Decision making is so slow that they miss out on major contract deadlines. Possibly a reason why they lose contracts and orders. - People come and go and personal level connections are hardly even there.
