Think Twice before you accept a job offer.

Pros

Think twice before you accept a job offer in the Finance Department. Specially in the finance or accounting department in the Chula Vista location. The culture from top leaders down is a bully, micromanagement and confrontational in many occasions. Top leaders are the worst at this behavior mainly in the Finance/Accounting Departments. Think twice if you want to talk to the local HR. Top leaders are very closed with HR.

Cons

Intimidation Micromanagement No work/life life balance Bully Finance/Accounting top leaders

Good to break in to the industry but not long term

Business analyst

Business Outlook

Pros

Good benefits and fairly good cross-communication

Cons

Since the merger and becoming RTX, the company has gone down the rabbit hole of profits over quality and people. If you come in at a lower level than you would qualify for with either experience or education, it is virtually impossible to move into those positions because of pay grade differences, basically locking you into lower positions and hindering advancement. They also pride themselves on not being the best paying employer, making hiring and retaining talent even more difficult.
