Pros

Interesting and innovative product that has a global demand and impact. Work life balance is good. Market for their product is

Cons

The RTX/Collins Salt Lake City office is a fossilizing business. It's comprised mostly of aloof industry veterans waiting for voluntary layoffs so they can retire with a tenured payout. The greater company has expressed that it is not interested in expanding the technology this office manages. The business unit itself does not generate a large amount of cash. Digitization and telework has pushed workflow to other sites and associates rely on internal "gig work" to stay busy. Business unit is nebulous and without direction. Decisions are poorly made and transparency is minimal. Finger pointing is the cultural norm when problems arise. Tenured employees are frustrated by change. Other office locations within the division seem more organized and direction.

Pros

quality "engineer" work are easy.

Cons

i used the word "engineer" loosely as we don't do any engineering work. We track customer returns, sign waiver, place stop ship and data entries. They make you do continues improvement but will not spend money or allow you to implements the improvement. It just checking the box to say they do it. New boss make you push waiver so they can ship out products to meet their numbers. there is no internal promotion so forget about. Do 4 RIF and then ramp up hiring 3 months later.
