Decent place to work

Pros

Fairly easy to move around internally through the internal posting system, decent benefits package. Its a large company and pretty easy to get in to a good work life balance situation.

Cons

Promotions and raises can be hard to come by. Performance ranking process is more based on who you know and who knows you.

Pratt & Whitney, potential for career development here

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

It's aerospace industry, which in itself is technical, challenging, fun, perhaps even glamorous. P&W offers potential career path development choices, if one can avoid being placed in a position or role and remaining "stuck." So, work your relationships as intelligence and performance does not in itself promote you.

Cons

Because the company is so large and complex, communication and information tend to be in silos, rather than accessible platforms conducive to sharing.
