      What a joke

      Pros

      It was a job but it wasn't going to help me in my career

      Cons

      What a joke of a company! Will lie to customers to get orders with no intention of fulfilling them under the terms of the order. Places "ability to read people" above setting strategy and tactics to fulfill a vision. My leader was more willing to listen to the rumor mill than data and facts, and when presented with data would say she couldn't believe her friends would like to her since she knew them for 34 years. She had no vision, no strategy, no goals.... as an executive she wouldnt have made it at a real defense company. Her only success was being tight with the boys network, all of which was disfunctional.

      Excellent place to start your career and leverage into a good job somewhere else

      Pros

      - Excellent development opportunities for early career engineers. You get handed a lot of responsibilities off the bat which a senior engineer should really be taking care of - Reasonably good day-to-day environment. Mind your own business and most of the time people won't bother you (with some exceptions)

      Cons

      - Almost everyone there is either in their early-mid 20s or their 50s. They have a turnover rate that makes most defense companies blush - losing about 3-4% of the engineers in that division per month (not year!) - They have a questionable idea of what the role of Level 1-2 engineers are, and will dump excess responsibilities on and rate employees poorly for not acting like a successful senior engineer while dumping senior responsibilities on them - Pay is about 10-20% lower than most defense contracters (NGC, Raytheon, etc.) and the benefits aren't competitive (high-deductible insurance plan was the only choice when I was there, 401k was mediocre, not much else)

      Solid company

      Pros

      Textron has a solid foundation in Defense Contracts and is a stable place to work.

      Cons

      The stability also makes the company conservative. There is some additional bureaucracy from working with the government.
