Pros

- Starting pay is good for the area - Vacation and sick time policy is pretty generous - Some of the people are pretty decent

Cons

- raises are pretty disappointing - expectations for receiving a higher raise are essentially unreachable by non-management - Treats it's employees like objects, moving then around projects as the upper management sees fit, with little to no concern of the employee's wants or goals. - While said transfers are "voluntary" there is a heavy feeling that it will reflect poorly on your reviews, and thus raises, if you don't comply - Corporate seems to push all the buzzword business strategies (matrix organization, six sigma, Agile, etc) without actually bringing in experts or properly training current managers

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
