"Good 'ol boys club"

Team advisor

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Important work - building military vehicles to keep our troops safe. Many very dedicated people work here.

Cons

The place is run by a management team that thinks it is still 1980. Rather than treat their employees as contributors, they treat them as subjects. They haven't figured out how to operate in a global market, yet. Management employees that are not “good ‘ol boy” pals of Sr. Mgt, don't stand a chance of advancement and will be the first out the door when layoffs come. People with progressive ideas threaten the Managers’ jobs (in their minds) so get rid of ‘em. HR takes their marching orders from the Union, so it is difficult to improve efficiencies because the deadwood is protected by both the Union and the HR dept.

Best job you will ever have!

Technical illustrator

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Incredible starting pay and benefits right out the gate! Very supportive on-boarding and one of the few places that really takes the time to properly train people in their new roll! Management is nothing short of brilliant and are always willing to give time off whenever you want it! Basically unlimited vacation days! Job postings will likely say "in office" but everyone's super cool about it and you can just work from home. Truly a dynamic workplace boldly moving into the future of the workplace and not at all a barely functioning dinosaur of a business!

Cons

The only con is that I can't live in my grey cube and spend all my time maximizing shareholder value!

Business Outlook

Pros

Salary is good. Not much else.

Cons

Leadership (I use the term very loosely) needs to go. Boys club make decisions on personal opinions and what suits the flavour of the month.
