Pros

I am struggling to find any. Salary is competitive.

Cons

Promotions based on time vs. merit. Time spent on tasking has to be recorded to the tenth of an hour, which deters mentorships, team development, and attendance to meetings. Employees feel undervalued nearly across the board and there are daily negative comments made about the company and work environment. Departments work in silos. Communication from leadership is poor. Health insurance is terrible.

Pros

Large Company, lots of different opportunities, flexible work hours

Cons

Tuition Assistance is being capped @10k per year beginning in 2020, IF YOU PLAN TO ATTEND PART TIME GRADUATE SCHOOL, DO NOT WORK HERE. Employees were told this 1.5 months before 2020. So if you want to get any sort of masters degree while working, be prepared that it will take 4-5 years to complete. I understand tuition assistance is a benefit. With that established, other companies (Boeing Raytheon etc.) Offer much better tuition assistance options. Many younger employees (myself included) are very frustrated with Northrops tactics and advise younger employees to choose somewhere else if you ever think of attending graduate school.
