Pros

If you are not part of production, you are golden. They have turned production into a place for low skill workers, and they pay them as such. I started when production had higher requirements, and I received higher pay. Essentially I was grandfathered in. I have since left, but I doubt that my situation will be the case for anyone newer.

Cons

I doubt you can get paid well in production anymore. They really dumbed down the work that was required for production to the point that anyone off the street could do it. Ultimately I left for greater opportunities since they also tend to look down on member of production, and refuse to promote from production.

Great Company, Inspiring Mission

Pros

The mission is inspiring, as waking up each day is motivating to know you are working on meaningful change. Culture is collaborative, where everyone I have met is supportive and wants to see you grow. Each role has an opportunity to contribute and add value to the company, where it is genuinely "You receive what you give". Going the extra mile will pay off.

Cons

The work environment is fast-paced, and while the team is there to assist, you will be expected to find answers individually, as others are mostly busy with their initiatives. Newer employees can expect to be onsite full-time.

Pros

I have loved working here. Shield tries to do things the right way setting you up for success in your career. The people here are intelligent, skilled, and kind. You can rely on your coworkers and learn tons from them. I feel I am a much better engineer today than I was when I started thanks to the company's concerted effort to develop its employees through mentorship, self directed learning, and work opportunities. Also, the work life balance is great, the work is interesting, and the mission is something I can get behind and be proud of.

Cons

Things are moving quickly causing a little chaos at times. Still the processes in place do a great job of minimizing the chaos.
