      Pros

      Large company, job stability, beautiful New London location, hiring engineers right now, hard working colleagues, good mentors, professional development programs, rotation programs, room for movement to different groups or growth within one group. Many of these pros may be specific to fluid systems.

      Cons

      Parking stinks, running out of office space for neede personnel, only two weeks of paid vacation, too many procedures and standards to try to follow.

      A good place to get a start, but not enough development opportunities for someone with ambition.

      Pros

      The company offers guidance through a mentor program to help you get started. They also offer a rotation program for those who want to expose themselves to different areas of the business. It's also a stable industry with good job security.

      Cons

      Most all raises and promotions are very time based rather than merit based. All time is charged to contracts, which results in "hourly" salary employees. This means that when time above 40 hours is worked, overtime is often unpaid, but anything under 40 hours and vacation time is taken. And employees are given only 2 weeks of vacation for the first 10 years of employment. The work is also very slow due to the nature of the business.
