Used to be a great place but the new performance system is horrible. There is a quota on number of top, above average, average etc. managers don't have ability to rate on performance.

Pros

Cool Technology, You work on and produce military products. The new technology is exciting and challenging. Thats of course when actual development was being performed and over the years this opportunity has dwindled away.

Cons

You are not cared about as an individual. Management will move you around without notice and since the business is declining, there is little to no opportunity to advance in your career. You will not be rewarded for doing your job.

It's unfortunate to hear you didn't find the opportunities you were looking for. We appreciate when former employees share their experiences and we're glad that you found your work exciting and challenging.

Pros

Was a good place to work. But with so few programs and the same managers in place no good ideas. Great if you are in the good old boy network.

Cons

Terrible place for females. And as they say, the it's who you know not what you know. The employee engagement is a farce. Management even said, if you don't want to see this next year, rate every category a 5. Mgmt created a bonus system such that they will now get 90% off the annual bonuses.
