Pros

Good salary, convenient location. Family oriented. Nice friendly, professional but casual environment.

Cons

Business travel expectations unrealistic, not completely open about these requirements. Was told travel not required during interview, then completely changed course.

AAI/Textron 2013 = Same old non-visionary philoshophy with new figure heads

Systems engineer iii

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Flexible work schedules and decent benefits for employees. Communication from top level management is starting to improve. Great talent among some of the entry-level people; they are willing to work hard to meet deadlines. External hires who were brought in based on their education and skill sets are our greatest assets.

Cons

The good old AAI way discourages innovation and ignores the customer in order to meet the bottom line. Management as well as mother Textron seem to be oblivious to this problem. If you are not tied to a project, related to someone, or longtime friends with the right executives, you are made to feel like an outsider. Staffing levels are poor for the amount of work that needs to be done, but project leads are stingy with funding. Senior staff who contribute nothing are asking to charge direct to programs just so they won't get the ax.

Business Outlook

Pros

Interesting work with the DoD and the intel community. Lean agile develoment practices. Smaller business type atmosphere / environment under the larger Textron umbrella which provides decent benefits and other job opps in different locations.

Cons

Revolving door with the mgmt team over the past two years. No strategy to right the ship in a DoD environment facing budget cuts. Lack of innovation and forward thinking.
