Pros

Pay is decent and PTO is good for early career employees. As with most defense contractors the work life balance is great.

Cons

PTO is below average if you are a senior employee since everyone gets the same amount. In my department the "mechanical" work is 99% drafting with no actual analysis. I joined during the merger with Harris and it's been an absolute mess. The onboarding process here is worse than anywhere else I've worked, it took me months to get my required software. They don't use chip badges so you need software tokens for encryption and teleworking which is unnecessarily convoluted and annoying. Laptops are not standard either so teleworking is a remote desktop, again, convoluted and annoying. The drawing practice at my division lacks organization and leaves people asking the engineers where to find drawings when that should be easily available from other drawings. People at my division loudly shout their conservative conspiracy theories as well. I've worked with people with their beliefs before but the culture here alloys them to loudly shout their beliefs which can be very distracting. They also just sold off 10% of the company after the merger.

The work is easy and very consistent. The work has not changed in 7 years

Everyone is underpaid, and the company is losing employees in droves. They cannot keep any talented engineers

Pros

Decent pay for higher level engineers. Recommend to get hired into the position as the merit increases are minimal

Cons

My experience has been only on 1 project with L3Harris and have heard general demeanor is much better on other programs. Poor project management. solution is through more management at problem or behind scheduled tasks limited hiring capability poor insight to future needs. terrible working hours and various requests.
