      Risk Adverse and Fairly Average

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good contract status with gov. Not going away.

      Cons

      Silos abound, management plays safe and good at finding blame. Strategy seems to be to ignore issues until promoted away from them.

      Cheap Company

      Systems engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Potential to work on interesting projects. Managers seem flexible for systems engineering in letting you do something different if you are unhappy with what you are doing and are interested in something else if there is availability. Helpful managers and coworkers

      Cons

      The company is very cheap towards their employees The only health benefits are high deductible plans The pay and benefits are not competitive compared to other large engineering companies You only get 40 hours of sick days a year. If you go over you owe them 40 hours of unpaid overtime plus the number of hours you go over 40. ex. 42 hours of sick days = 42 hours of overtime. They took away their fitness program that assists in paying for your gym membership They will not pay you more money for getting a Masters Degree once you are there

      Setting the standard for a bad workplace

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Like others have said it's real hard to get fired. They appear to only be able to trace it back to time charging fraud. Otherwise sky's the limit if you're a slacker or a repeat harasser. Alternative facts meet alternative work. We have coworkers the play solitaire all day or spend most of the day on the can. Management promotes it's own and the meaner and nastier you are the higher you'll climb.

      Cons

      Benefits are a joke. Don't work here if you think you will ever get really sick and be able to pay for it. No challenging/interesting work except finding new ways to make the management feel special. Lordy knows how many times I've had to let my manager give me a 'massage'. No trust in employees to do anything right. Everything is fresh outta 1990 in the tech department. Lots of stress, tears, and fights. Good luck getting your manager to approve a flex week or 9/80! Campus is in continual decline. If you must work in Aerospace just move to Colorado.
