      Staid, antediluvian workplace with union drones

      Pros

      Uhhh....you could probably switch to a role at Otis Elevators? The benefits were nice.

      Cons

      Work-life balance is non-existent. The firm is outsourcing all manufacturing. The union drones are allergic to change. There's senior management lip service to process improvement, so long as that means pretty signs and coats of paint on the 50 year old equipment. Management metrics aren't tied to profitability, but rather to some corrupted version of earned value/delivered hours.

      Great for Mechanical and Aero Engineerings not so great for those in the IT field.

      Pros

      It's a great company for those in the Mechanical and Aero Engineering field who like to be challenged with highly technical problems. They offer great educational benefits although they were better a few years ago. Other benefits are about average compared with other companies which is a bit disappointing since they had above average benefits when I started. Sick time is above average with 5 days + 5*(number of years) days per year. While vacation time is below average. Start off with 2 weeks, get 3 at 8 years, and 4 at 18, etc. The company also treats everyone about the same regardless of race and gender.

      Cons

      Not a great company for those in the IT field. Management is mostly made of Electrical and Mechanical Engineers who don't see the value that the IT field has to offer. As a result productivity of its Engineers are lower than it should be as many of it's Engineering processes are very manual intensive.
