Pros

There is interesting work there, and many of the coworkers are very talented.

Cons

Management is the biggest issue, followed by how corporate treats its employees. Corporate has said repeatedly that we have had "an amazing year" and "record profits" and yet little to nothing has come down to the men and women that make it all happen every day. They especially target more senior employees by reducing our benefits to give to newer employees. That is a sad trend. They talk a good game about work/life balance by most of that is talk.

Pros

Missions are impactful to the world Top talent in specialized fields Wonderful people Respectful environment

Cons

Processes and policies are not robust enough to support the large growth / merger, which leaves everyone operating in silos and interpreting things in their own ways Shared service model is not structured properly Not enough critical thinking around how budgets should be allocated for tools, capital, and salaries Higher level leaders are too in the weeds and not working on the harder strategic aspects Businesses are not aligned with common products to gain best synergies as all businesses fight to defend $s not what actually makes sense for the company (radios sharing same suppliers are in completely different segments; CCAs are built across 10+ different factories managed by different management teams instead of a couple of large COEs) All leaders felt unempowered due to lack of ownership of budgets. Budgets were set but then adjusted at further levels without any additional discussion of new targets and how to achieve. Then budgets would be reallocated a few months into year if you weren't demonstrating that you truly need it. This drove teams to spend heavy up front and not make the smartest decisions at times
