Pros

- The company has a lot of really dedicated people. They believe in the product and the good it does for the customer. I personally have a great boss, and great coworkers. I can sincerely say that I look forward to my work every morning. - The medical and benefits are some of the best in Alabama. - Just changed CEOs

Cons

-There have been some hurdles over the last few years because of how tightly the companies revenue is tied to military sales, but management is working on how to accommodate for those fluctuations. You can see that most recently in their change in stance on the commercial side of the house. They are putting a renewed emphasis on expanding that area of business into new markets. - As with any company you have your cliques. This can be seen in the posts here with the military and civilian perspectives. I think it is sad, however, in some of the posts that people do not take others feelings into account. You should never post something hateful about an individual or group.

We thank you for your post and agree that our company is filled with talents, dedicated, and loyal workers. Without a workforce like the one we have we would not be able to produce the quality products that our customers have come to expect.

Pros

We had a lot of freedom in choosing the course of development. Boulder had great engineering, Alabama had very good manufacturing and test capability.

Cons

Senior management is sorely missing. Personal infighting never ends. Financial strength of the company is very poor.

Pros

+Nice people, especially outside of work. +Good overtime pay.

Cons

-Almost dystopian work environment, with plenty of manipulation and CYA behavior. -Work came in bursts, but there was a lot of downtime where I was basically paid to surf the Internet. -Deals with military and some big airlines, so there's a lot of absurd requirements that aren't really necessary but have to be met anyway. -Work can become very run-of-the mill after a while. Very few people I knew did much new; most just did the same old stuff they did on the previous product on the new product. -Way too many project managers when I was there. Don't know if that's still the case.
