Pros

In the early days of the pandemic when many activities were shutting down, the L3Harris hiring manager and HR representative went out of their way to line me up with multiple virtual interviews, for multiple openings. They kept me well informed in the process steps after the interviews and were quick in the hiring decision and offer. After coming on-board, employee health and safety has been emphasized as a top priority, and as a result, they are very encouraging and accommodating to allow work-from home as much as possible. My onboarding experience was very well organized, and I am very happy that I had the opportunity and made the right decision to join this great team.

Cons

A bittersweet con for L3Harris is that they are so successful in keeping the confidence of the US military, that business is great and the work load is growing slightly faster than the workforce

Pros

The pay is great starting off, and you now have every Friday's off.

Cons

Horrible Management, They do not promote from within. it will take you some years to move up into a new position especially if you start off as an hourly employee and not salary. IF you do not mind being in high school again this would be a great fit, because everyone here is out to get you.

Pros

Decent Tuition reimbursement and health insurance. The work is not bad depending on the department you work in.

Cons

Senior management has become to corporate, only concerned about metrics and making money. Making supervisors lose sight of their employee's and what it takes to get work done on the ground. They expect to get more than they are willing to give and let bad employee's get away with bad work and expect good employee's to make up for it. Most people are miserable everyday. Not much room for advancement without a degree. Job postings that do not require a degree, you will not get the position if your not interested in getting a degree in the future. They are degree snobs.
