Pros

Some very nice people to work with.

Cons

Too many layoffs in the past seven years. High paid old Litton employees holding positions that require college degrees, but old Litton employees have no degree at all. Very poor management and too top heavy. Too many chiefs and not enough Indians. Diversity is making the company work quality and efficiency weak. Company is overwhelmed with meetings. No company stability. No new business in Apopka, FL. Would not recommend.

Pros

Not much pros but talented coworkers.

Cons

I joined expecting a long-term career and initially had a positive experience. Unfortunately, the culture changed significantly after leadership transitions. Micromanagement increased, decision-making became highly centralized, and employee morale steadily declined. Many experienced employees and managers left during my time there, making it difficult to maintain continuity and trust within the organization. The work itself was meaningful, and I had the opportunity to support important projects with talented colleagues. However, recognition, career growth, and employee retention did not appear to receive the same level of attention as process, reporting, and management oversight. My layoff was communicated as unrelated to performance, which was appreciated. However, after years of contribution and institutional knowledge, the overall experience left me feeling that employees were viewed as replaceable rather than valued long-term assets.
