L3Harris reviews

Upper level management has not done a good job at maintaining the various business units that became L3Harris as part of the L3/Harris merger. When we were acquired we were told that working for a big company would provide more opportunities, however over the past few years a once thriving business has eroded under L3Harris management. Bidding new jobs became a difficult and frustrating process. Getting new equipment like laptops became nearly impossible. Highly efficient cross functional teams were "functionalized" and reorganized based on engineering disciplines. This reorg meant that even members of the same contract and team now had many different managers located across the country. Getting licenses for standard engineering tools became a months long ordeal. It has become harder and harder to get work done. Many of us feel as though we spend nearly half of our time just dealing with "L3Harris problems" instead of getting real work done. I think your experience will greatly depend on what division and group you end up in, but there are more bad places to end up than good ones.

Ever since L3Harris bought Aerojet Rocketdyne things have gone downhill. Management only cares about dollar signs, and doesn't want to invest in facilities, technology, IRAD, or employees for long term success. Our team is overworked but there's a hiring freeze and they are threatening layoffs in the near future. They have cut benefits to the bone, and health insurance costs tripled from last year. The raise pool was 3.5% and that includes promotions, so even if you do get lucky enough to get promoted you get a 6% raise max. There's an open office pool on who's gonna quit next - it's like the Hunger Games where every week we lose someone else.
