Soul Crushing - Engineer Pratt & Whitney Employee Review

Pros

Work with good people, intellectually stimulating, managers try to give good work-life balance. Only reason I put two stars on here instead of one is because I know that there's child slave labor in other parts of the world.

Cons

Quintessential corporate America -- your soul gets crushed over time. You could spend hours and hours going above and beyond on something and it genuinely won't mean a thing. Incredibly slow moving and boring company where you sit at a computer screen all day. Then when you are on the shop floor the unionized mechanics are all lazy and waste millions of dollars of the company's money. And then the company enacts cost-curtailment where they can't even pay for coffee in the office and lunch is not subsidized but rather actually more expensive than buying it somewhere else. Everything regarding company messaging is fake and just meant to appeal to what they think society as a whole wants.

Pros

Decent pay and good benefits.

Cons

Personnel reporting to me had apparently looked up my political affiliation (which I had never mentioned) and took exception to it by sabotaging work that I had supervised. This was well before 2022 - actually 2015-2016 (2022 is earliest review date I could select). I was just now remembering it. This polarized political posture was a function of the plant being near Harrisburg, PA which, at least then, was a somewhat "redneckish" area. I have never discussed my politics at work, so it seemed absurd of them to look up my party affiliation and take issue with it.
