Reviews about "large company"
Return to all Reviews- Former Employee★★★★★
Pros
Overall good company. Like any large company and strong union can be challenging.
Cons
Union to much power, management couldn’t do what was needed.
- Former Employee★★★★★
Pros
Great benefits and interesting work
Cons
Similar cons to any very large company
- Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
The environment is professional and calm. There was very little workplace drama. The equipment provided is of reasonable quality.
Cons
1) They will box you into your role and disallow you to expand elsewhere, despite any other experience you may have. I was actively told not to assist other workers in other departments because that "wasn't my job" despite the fact that they were struggling and I was capable of helping. 2) You will be VERY underworked. Much of the job is waiting for something to pop up, and because they box you into your role, there is very little opportunity to find your own work and make yourself useful elsewhere. 3) There is very little training or guidance. They throw you into the deep end without teaching you any of the nuance, and since they have their own standards and policies, there are a lot of little details not provided in the handbook. They will not teach you these details. The manager will instead wait for you to make a mistake and then scold you. Much of the learning I experienced on this team was through making small mistakes and getting corrected rather than professional or helpful guidance. 4) The manager is hard to approach and it will be easy to tell whether or not she likes you. 5) They will preach a company "culture of kindness" but will do very little to walk that walk. The VP clearly has all the best intentions and makes a lot of effort, but since her team is spread out across the coast, it is difficult for her to make sure that the culture she wants is being implemented. The lower level leadership in particularly does not ensure weaving a small-company closeness like the VP wants. 6) For such a large company, the benefits are mediocre at best and the yearly equity/raise is laughable.

Pros
Lots of good people who are connected to the mission and the work of bring the men and women overseas home safe and sound. A very large company that offers fantastic benefits and opportunities for learning. Offered multiple opportunities for career and location changes throughout tenure. Very strong Diversity and Inclusion efforts and good ERG events. Competitive pay for the locations they operate in.
Cons
Too risk averse and rigid. This has gotten stronger over the last few years. Many times it felt like pulling teeth in order to make impactful changes. Leadership at times feels afraid to make decisions or changes. Career development is really on the employee and makes it hard to seek out new opportunities. Systems and culture could be improved to enable more natural career development. Some locations felt like secondary companies as most of the attention went to a few sites.
