Great place to learn and grow, but your position won't grow with you

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

There's plenty to do, and latitude to work in different areas, try things, learn things. You will learn new skills. You will be given new responsibilities. Sometimes you get to see demos of UAVs or other very cool stuff. Flexible schedules usually aren't a problem at AAI if you communicate with your boss.

Cons

For one project, the management had already made a capital purchase (over $10M) but had employees "debate" which system to purchase. If you are hired on as an intern or as an entry level employee, your salary and position will not grow to match the level of your work and responsibilities. At some point you will have to quit to be fairly compensated. Former CEO sold some land to make the company books better so Textron would buy AAI - now there's a Wal*Mart right next door.

Steady Decline in Core Values and Leadership

Employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

1) the people you work with can be some of the most down to earth and enjoyable people 2) the work can be interesting on the development side 3) middle managers occasionally advocate for their employees, but most are too scared to anger management

Cons

1) there is no alternate work arrangement (WFH) going forward, so if they tell you there is opportunity to work from home that is not true 2) senior and executive leadership have lost the pulse of the people, they also do not handle pushback with anything other than blatant retaliation against those who spoke up, and they have zero accountability 3) there will be no flexibility in schedule, with set shift start and end times set to become policy in April
