Pros

The product and the people are the only good things about the company. Perfect place to work if your only career goal is to clock in and clock out.

Cons

Impossible to effect organizational change, management makes you focus 100% of your time on waste, engineers are not expected to do real engineering work, nobody is held accountable, bad morale all around, the union takes all of the CAD work and takes 10 times longer than it should to do a simple model, too much to list.

Pros

This is a last resort job if you can’t find anything else

Cons

The processes and systems in place to get the job done is dismal. There is no official training for the job role. If you make suggestions and try to be helpful you are seen as a threat by management. There is rarely any cross functional communication. It feels like they want things to take a long time and be wrong so that they can charge the govt. more money. (Bc every task you do will have a charge number). Most long timers at the company don’t care about the work being done inefficiently either, bc they have a reason for overtime. Very weird corporate politics / favoritism. (I have never seen it as bad as it is here). Parking is terrible at every location.
