      Culture supports favoritism

      Pros

      Benefit offerings are decent based on industry standards. Ellen Lord is a very powerful, articulate speaker who knows the company intimately and the products that AAI makes support the US military and allies. Most of my coworkers were easy to get along with.

      Cons

      All I heard the last 2 years I was employed at AAI was how important it was to grow our employees and promote from within. Yet, the main focus is on recent college grads, which bypasses those employees who have the experience but no degree. However, if you are a "golden child", a favorite, the company will bend over backwards to keep you, even if you don't meet the job requirements. You'll get promoted anyway.

      Seniority counts, talent not so much

      Pros

      I was given very little work to do, so the job was easy, and I had plenty of time to plan starting a business without work getting in the way.

      Cons

      Boring, mediocre employees. Outdated and antiquated technology. Fiefdoms of senior employees whose talent seemed to be in having been there a long time rather than actual skills or intellect made the job annoying. Too much cronyism.

      Very segmented. Poor communication between groups.

      Pros

      Good pay and benefits. Flexible work times.

      Cons

      Management constantly changing. In seven years I have had 8 supervisors. Poor managers are just moved around. "Good old boy" and who's on the golf team runs deep. Training is nonexistent. Figure it out as you go along. Lay off and terminations are erratic. Very tense work environment. Lots of CYA and that's not my job.
