Textron Systems Principal Software Engineer reviews

Constantly changing direction at the whim of Army program management. No job security at all (60 % of Austin employees have been laid off in the last couple of years). They want to be a software service company for the government rather than product developers.

Employees are not empowered to make decisions Managers only look out for themselves and will throw employees under the bus They have laid off some really great people with a lot of domain knowledge that would challenge the status quo and kept those that were "yes men" now the ship is sinking even faster. Wish I didn't still have so much company stock...my portfolio has taken a major hit.
