Pros

9/80 week. Most people are pleasant

Cons

No opportunities. Its a fast track or no track in Northrop Grumman. Cannot move up in my own organization as they only hire from the outside. Manger quits, you put in an application, they don't even call you back to tell you that you are not getting an interview. Management changes frequent, but they rotate. No way to move up, bottom line. The rare examples are new hires that somehow get on a fast track. kiss up buddy, then you might make it here.

Pros

Not much pros but talented coworkers.

Cons

I joined expecting a long-term career and initially had a positive experience. Unfortunately, the culture changed significantly after leadership transitions. Micromanagement increased, decision-making became highly centralized, and employee morale steadily declined. Many experienced employees and managers left during my time there, making it difficult to maintain continuity and trust within the organization. The work itself was meaningful, and I had the opportunity to support important projects with talented colleagues. However, recognition, career growth, and employee retention did not appear to receive the same level of attention as process, reporting, and management oversight. My layoff was communicated as unrelated to performance, which was appreciated. However, after years of contribution and institutional knowledge, the overall experience left me feeling that employees were viewed as replaceable rather than valued long-term assets.
