Pros

Interesting and challenging work assignments and technologies. So much to do that there is not a lot of time for petty office politics. Competitive pay and benefits.

Cons

The predominance of government customers is reflected in rather bureaucratic, formal business processes. Sometimes the work is very detailed and tedious.

Pros

None come to mind unless you like being undervalued, overworked, belittled, gaslit, & made to feel like nothing you do is ever good enough. If you enjoy feeling like this, stay at Textron by all means.

Cons

Where do I start? This company was the worst thing that ever happened to me. I watched unqualified people get promotions twice within a year despite engaging in immoral, unethical, and egregious behavior that quite frankly warranted termination. I watched an unqualified, disrespectful get tossed around from program to program despite bullying multiple employees and getting caught watching NSFW content on company time. After several years of sacrificing for this company, I made the easiest decision to leave and never look back. I sincerely hope that someone sees this review and thinks twice before accepting an offer at this company. There are several companies that will actually value employees instead of treating them like the scum of the earth, which is what Textron does. Do not be fooled by the smiling faces of your supervisor. If you are promised a promotion, don't believe it until it happens. I made the mistake of listening to my supervisor when they said that a promotion was coming only to not get one when the time came. Another point of consternation is the pay/benefits. Textron pays below industry standard, and the benefits do not compensate for the below-average pay. HR is useless and has no clue about the benefits they're supposed to know inside and out. It's a shame such unqualified, clueless, and quite frankly, idiotic people are in positions of leadership.

Pros

Great pay for minimum education requirements. If you work harder than the bare minimum for them, you will be taken care of. Some deployment sites are amazing. Personal experience for me. They took amazing care of me during some of the hardest times of my life and allowed me to take care of my family and not worry about my job.

Cons

The standard of Crew Rest or what the army calls "Fighter Management" does not apply to the aircrew of this non-program of record aircraft. So you work 12hrs a day, 7days a week until the weather hits or you go on leave. There was in the past a problem with the "Good Ole Boy" System. Meaning being friends with the right person can further your career more than your skill set can.
