Pros

Flexible Work schedule and some real good people. A pension plan is availble for some, but as of 2007 it was dropped. There is some job security and you work on some interesting projects.

Cons

There is a buddy system with the old timers. Promotions are rather hard to come by. Profit sharing doesn't exist, company seems to care too much for stockholders and director/VP bonus's. Company braggs about record or good profits, but it is never passed to the employees. Raises are usually bad, unless your manager goes to bat for you. Too many paper pushers, you would think we were a scheduling and management company rather that at aerospace company.

Pros

Challenging work environment with many opportunities to stretch into new areas. Good pay, benefits and people. This is a great technically fulfilling and professionally satisfying employer.

Cons

Being such a large company many times the communication lines are very thin. One can easily get lost in the mix. The job posting internal and external is cumbersome and lacks feedback or responsiveness. It seems sometimes that the benefits get cut continuously including tuition reimbursement, pension, and next to come health insurance. Record profits don't mean record pay increases, just a higher standard for the next year.
