Pros

* This company's certain Technical Team is good in your old age when you want a relax job.

Cons

* Lot of dirty politics inside RF and Phased Array Antenna Team * If you are hired for RF Engineer you will be put as a repetitive measurement guy for a long time which can be done with a simple GED pass guy. * I heard Phased Array Antenna Team is also worse. Do not join that group if you are planning to join as an Antenna engineer. The guy now is senior he does not want to share knowledge or share most of the emails to the Team members . He just makes his boss (He is not an Antenna person) very happy. Boss does not know whats going on inside. You will end up with a labor in this group if he leads. Ultimately, you will waste your time in this group. * Many dirty politics inside. * Not many benefits. * Worst medical plan.

Pros

Can survive if you hang out close with the upper management. This is applicable to most of the departments here.

Cons

Politics decide a lot of things. Working hours for the pay is not justified.
