Pros

Large long term programs. Possibility to move to different programs/different parts of the company. Possibility of changing job focus to a different area of interest in engineering. Much better than average benefits and about average salary. Very good continuing education support.

Cons

Very large management structure that can result in long decision making process. Difficulty achieving next skill level at some programs/sites due to lack of program budget. Sparse communication from senior management during periods of program uncertainty.

Pros

Work-life balance has been great at the Long Beach site. My coworkers are very considerate and supportive. Benefits suck as parental leave and 401k, Roth 401k, and mega backdoor Roth make it so you can really get ahead in terms of retirement building. They are trying to get better in culture and performance rather than some companies that don’t even pretend to care. During the pandemic there was no training. Now there’s some!

Cons

Base pay can be slightly lower than other companies for specific skills. Each site and each organization within each site has its own culture depending on who is the VP/executive team. There are so many executives it’s hard to get things done. Things move very slowly.
