Vantaggi

The most diverse technical challenges you will find. Name one other company that makes its own computers, actuators, airframes, landing gear, SW, etc, etc. Engineers are given as much technical responsibility as they can handle. There are still great mentors for those who are eager to learn.

Svantaggi

The company has been overrun by politicians. The core technical capabilities that made the company great have been subjugated to political aspirations of mediocre peter principle graduates. There is little to no management structure to guide engineering process resulting in a squeeky wheel, firefighting atmosphere with little delegation of responsibility but plenty of blame to go around.

Knowledgeable engineers and technicians, great learning opportunities, good training

Svantaggi

Not so much of a CON, but you get thrown into the fire as soon as you're hired. Very fast paced.

Vantaggi

9/80 work schedule. Benefits are decent. One of the few comapnies that offer a pension in addition to 401k.

Svantaggi

Too many management layers. Promotions seem to be based on who you know, and if you fit into the right "clique". Some promotions are being given to managers with no experience in the function. Executuve leadership appears out of touch with their employees. Example - Chaotic games have been played the last 3 years with remote and hybrid work policies.
