Challenging Defense industry changes - Principal Software Engineer Textron Systems Employee Review

Pros

Easy work although repetitive at times. Very little pressure and good work/life balance. Peers are friendly.

Cons

Little room for advancement. Perhaps driven by lack of future contracts. Responded too late to the market and was punished for it. Went through the motions for change instead of establishing true programs that will add value for the future of the company and employees. Culture was antiquated but made attempts to modernize.

Pros

Friendly people at the lower levels. Great at putting up with lots of nonsense and “pivoting”.

Cons

No effort in employee retention. Lots of employees leaving (whether by their own choice or not) yet there is very little effort in finding replacements, leading to higher work loads with no increase in compensation. Pay is uncompetitive and raises and nowhere near enough to make up the difference.
