Pros

Great until mergers started to eat profits including L3.

Cons

"Upper management lost track of what was important; which was the it's employees and customer." They make 10b per year yet still lay off 5-10k each year at Thanksgiving and Christmas

Pros

The people, there are some really sharp and very good folks that work for this company Work from home sometimes but senior management doesn't care for it so its on its way out

Cons

Poor cross training/ Lack of training / most of all training is on the job figure it out yourself No room for advancement Middle/Senior Management would rather play power trip games then actually focus on making this network more stable and services better for our customers Unrealistic metrics, Management will always ask for more yet HR outsourced to a center that doesn't care, there is hardly anymore HR representation PTO has been reduced since merger Pay has been reduced since merger Benefits are more expensive had has less coverage since merger The merger was not good for employees but there was a lot of senior management that benefited from the decision via bonuses.
