Pros

Increase to 401k percentage Stock performance Most people outside the executive team are friendly and ethical

Cons

Leidos has changed in all the worst ways since Tom Bell arrived. “Sucks to be you” was a quote from his last employee all hands related to the challenges people faced in doing the legwork for the second reorganization he’s done since arrival. Each has been poorly planned and executed causing a significant amount of extra work and churn. Leidos has become unethical, the type of place that throws people out like trash. I could understand if individuals were poor performers but they aren’t so they are leaning heavy into layoffs/reorgs to purposely get rid of certain people. When complaints are raised, even when there is merit, they are quickly closed with no accountability (unless you are lower level/non VP+ mgmt — you will be held accountable). Overall I’m disgusted with what I’ve seen the last couple years. They do not care about people only stock price and bullying employees, other companies, and the overall market. So glad I escaped when I did and every week I get a call or text from a former coworker asking me to save them too.
