Pros

Great company for entry to intermediate level employees to get quick exposure and experience. Great global exposure. Great company mission.

Cons

Work-Life Balance Career advancement is stagnant at senior levels. Lack of technology to support internal processes and reporting for any area. Has three business units that act as separate companies. Steals resources and sales from one another. One UL is a common message that is not accurate. Leadership is out of touch with what is possible to do. A recent massive internal initiative has recently failed because it was too deadline driven instead of quality driven. No accountability especially at the leadership level. No clear direction on where the business is going.

Pros

The work is interesting. Some decent travel is available if desired. If you work hard and set yourself apart from others you can earn a promotion.

Cons

It’s all about who you know. All responsibilities fall on Engineering. Engineering does much more than “engineer” and spend too much time on stuff that admin staff “should be able” to do. When something needs to change the usual solution is to have Engineers be responsible for it because many non-engineers can’t handle mediocre tasks.
