Pros

Relatively better benefits and very competitive salaries. Good and friendly working environment. Aware of employee development needs.

Cons

Limited promotion or growth opportunities, particularly in engineering. Limited work scope and depending on the project, may not encounter challenging tasks. Continued force reduction since 2009 (except 2012) at Clarksburg, MD location.

Pros

*This only applies to the Montgomeryville location* None. Used to be a great place to work. I enjoyed the work I did and the various teams I worked with.

Cons

*This only applies to the Montgomeryville location* -Health benefits have gotten worse each year. -Constant layoffs. -Changed from an 8 hour 3 shift day, 5 days a week to a 10 hour 2 shift day, 4 days out of the week. The idea was to save money on overtime, then they started asking the employees to stay the 4 hours between shifts. Then they started asking the employees to work the extra 3 days. Then they made the employees sign a waiver, making the 3 days mandatory when needed. -Flat raises, everyone gets the same raise. -Lower management no longer cares -Upper management is too focused on vanity projects or no longer cares
