Pros

If you plan on staying in Connecticut for life, it’s a great company for work life balance and okay pay.

Cons

Generally no bonuses. They changed the employee scholar program benefits effecting hundreds of employees without grandfathering in individuals. Really poor communication about the change as well

Pros

Salary was good. Benefits were good

Cons

If You do not meet their expectations they will terminate you with no severance and right before christmas. They don't even offer you to transfer to another department. Their expectations is to follow a micro manager's intructions who will fail you if he does not like you. My dream company became my worst nightmare. Work 12hr days and not even a thank you. So be careful before you accept an offer.

Pros

Interesting new products that have the potential to bring the company back into the market as a viable engine manufacturer, if executed effectively.

Cons

The work force doesn't seem to be creative enough to figure out how to provide solutions in an increasingly analytical and diagnostic driven industry. The company seems to be years behind what their competitors have already brought to market and unwilling to recognize that, as majority of workforce has limited or no knowledge outside of PW. There are too many meetings that are solely used to flow down information. Furthermore, there appears to be lack of empowerment throughout middle management regarding their ability to make lasting decisions on any initiative without fear of frustrating an executive. The organization remains highly bureaucratic.
