Northrop Grumman reviews

Most of the work is away from the company because much of the work is at customer sites. Therefore, you get very little time with management.

Northrop Grumman Space Technology is a sector without an identity. Before being acquired by Northrop Grumman, TRW was known as a very innovative company that was an industry leader in space solutions large and small, beginning to end. After being acquired by Northrop Grumman, older employees grumble about management and employee structuring, and the typical management bureaucracies that are inherent in a large company. NGST seems very "walled off" from other sectors within Northrop Grumman. Benefit packages are somewhat "industry standard", as companies like Boeing have better education benefits. The housing market in Southern California is insane, so unless you have a trust fund, renting is the only viable solution. Knowledge sharing has been a problem in the past, as it seems like many employees feel like they're re-inventing the wheel with every task, though that is getting better with the role-out of online collaboration centers (bulletin boards, wikis, etc).
