Pros

The organization is flexible and understanding, in addition they are just starting to roll out Microsoft Teams and are trying to stay ahead of the technology curve (as compared to other industry companies), The company has provided WFH equipment and overall they try really hard to make sure people are doing alright

Cons

I know this is normal, but since the merger with UTC, the leadership volatility is insane. No one really knows where they will end up (functional homeroom-wise) and it is a little frustrating. We can see leadership figure it out as they go and, while that makes sense, it still feels like a cluster.

Pros

Great medical, life insurance, and retirement benefits. Good job stability. Competitive salaries.

Cons

Lots of rules and restrictions since they are a government contractor. Due to security risks and other concerns, the available software tools and technology are years behind the industry standard. A high turnover rate seems to be a common theme throughout the company.
