Pros

Good PTO policy Good Paternity Leave when I needed it Very interesting programs to support Good place to get your foot in the door if you're trying to switch career fields

Cons

Some of the most toxic management I've ever had to work with Says "will train", then gives you access to online courses you're not allowed to do on the clock. Almost no real mentorship, it's like the blind leading the blind and everyone is just trying to figure it out. Poor annual raises, if any at all. Internal transfer process is an absolute nightmare.

Pros

Missions are impactful to the world Top talent in specialized fields Wonderful people Respectful environment

Cons

Processes and policies are not robust enough to support the large growth / merger, which leaves everyone operating in silos and interpreting things in their own ways Shared service model is not structured properly Not enough critical thinking around how budgets should be allocated for tools, capital, and salaries Higher level leaders are too in the weeds and not working on the harder strategic aspects Businesses are not aligned with common products to gain best synergies as all businesses fight to defend $s not what actually makes sense for the company (radios sharing same suppliers are in completely different segments; CCAs are built across 10+ different factories managed by different management teams instead of a couple of large COEs) All leaders felt unempowered due to lack of ownership of budgets. Budgets were set but then adjusted at further levels without any additional discussion of new targets and how to achieve. Then budgets would be reallocated a few months into year if you weren't demonstrating that you truly need it. This drove teams to spend heavy up front and not make the smartest decisions at times
