Pros
Tactical Systems USED to be a great place to work. Back when it was still Paravant Computer, it was voted "Best Workplace in Brevard" five years in a row. My, how things change!
Cons
The company was sold twice in the past 6 years, first to DRS Tech., and then DRS was bought-out by an Italian company. When the Italian co. came in, they started milking DRS to cover their own financial problems and management scandals. Employees ultimately paid the price through internal cutbacks in perks, miserly raises, and layoffs. This all happened BEFORE the military budget cutbacks. Several KEY contracts expired during 2012, leaving Tactical Systems with almost NO revenue after the third quarter. Much of this was simply the result of election-year politics. Tactical Systems has now been so badly crippled that it may not survive.
