Pros
As a defense contractor AAI gets really cool/interesting projects. A lot of the engineers are really smart/ good people to work with.
Cons
AAI/Textron does not care about retaining talent; employees are just a number. It is really difficult to advance in your group. Management openly tells employees best way to get a raise or promotion is to apply to a different group. However that is really difficult because you have to be friends with the managers. Positions are only posted for a couple hours, and the person they want to hire is told about it, then then take the position down.
