Pros

Employees are great and family atmosphere despite management.

Cons

No retention plan , people at the Menlo Park facility are fed up with Harris’s plan of reducing and getting rid of benefits and increasing health premiums by 4~5 % and pay increases of 2 -1/2 % , we’ve lost money for 3 years now , Cigna insurance has physicians no longer accepting the insurance, I’ve had to change primary care physician twice , we like Kaiser here in California. Petty , such as , every year at thanksgiving we have received a 50$ Safeway card , that’s gone too . Orientation and training here is almost non existent and corporate IT is a nightmare, 3 weeks to onboard an employee, ridiculous.

Thank you for your review. We benchmark our medical and insurance plans each year against our direct competitors and the A&D industry. While others in our industry have moved toward only providing high deductible health plans, we continue to offer a traditional PPO medical plan option for employees who prefer predictable out-of-pocket costs for PCP, specialist, urgent and emergent care. Please reach out to your HR Business Partner with any of your questions and suggestions.

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
