Pros

The People are awesome to work with. Its just about a family oriented business, meaning that you are treated like family within the company. Great opportunities for for growth and learning. Management is really helpful when suggesting class's to take to increase your knowledge and skills. Management helps you to achieve your goals and supports your learning within the various projects you are assigned to. We have onsight dinning facility that serves up some good food. The last few years the holiday parties were awesome, giving away some great prizes like 42in flat panel tv's and trips for two on a cruise ship. Our clients and customers are great and we work very well with them and them with us.

Cons

Being an Aerospace company in a down market is not the best thing for a company like ours. As were high aviation fuel costs. We had some layoffs but only about 4 or 5%, we are hoping for no more of that for 2009. All in all its a great company to work for.

Pros

More or less stable. Friendly, caring people. The people are certainly fantastic, and they are good at what they do. Management on the other hand are generally out of touch with how to run a modern, commercial organization. They are from academic and government funded R&D backgrounds so it's in their blood. With respect to product development, they have no idea how to research markets and understand customers. They are used to governmental organizations telling them exactly what to do. Camarillo and Imaging Sensors are their focus - the rest of the company's business units are a sideshow long forgotten.

Cons

Inept management. Generally clueless about running a commercial business. This is because of the heavy background in R&D. Extremely risk adverse and horrible at strategic planning and market understanding. Extremely distrustful of outsiders and irrationally optimistic.
