Pros

Benefits are great, the work atmosphere is family-orientated, new challenges occuring daily, location of Skokie campus is close to the highway, employees got paid on a weekly basis, there are holiday parties for every season of the year. There is a 1 week shutdown (with pay) period awarded to all employees who work a certain amount of hours in a year. There are company sports leagues that all employees are allowed to participate in: golf, volleyball, bowling, pool, etc.

Cons

After Woodward acquires another company, there is a standstill in growing internally within the company. No vision benefits. Lunch breaks are only 45 minutes long.
