Pros

The team was super supportive when I first came on board. Senior software engineers took their time explaining concepts (the basics and the mission). Everyone on the team is willing to drop everything and help another team member out. The collaboration is fantastic and everyone is super supportive which is exactly what someone right out of college wants/needs. Management is easy to talk to and caters to the employees needs with proper training and guidance. Benefits are pretty good. Health care plans just recently went up though.

Cons

PTO is limited and may feel pressured to get full 40 hours in when you had a snow storm in the middle of the week still. Security clearance process is a pain and slow. Work is sometimes dull - lots of maintenance fixes and not a lot of coding/design implementation at times.

Pros

Company is stable, well-known and revered in the market. Moving around (laterally) within the company is fairly easy. Getting every other Friday off and Christmas vacation is a plus.

Cons

Lack of diversity in leadership. Leadership often does not stand by employees. Completely disorganized. Constantly rolling out new company-wide initiatives that never pan out. Work-life balance isn't the greatest. Pay is low compared to market. Benefits package has declined. Lots of nepotism, favoritism, and lack of advancement for the hard-working. Talent is often overloaded with work while under-performers aren't reprimanded. HR works against employees, ethics board is a joke and retaliation is rampant when wrongdoing is reported. Constant layoffs. Advancement is nearly impossible. If you are forward-thinking, creative, and looking to grow, avoid Aeronautics all together. Nine times out of ten you will be doing work that does not correlate to your skills--or doing work that does nothing to grow or enhance your competences.
