      Pros

      - People are bright, pleasant to work with, and passionate - Work is meaningful

      Cons

      - Raises and bonuses are insignificant and near non-existent. - Work schedule is high stress. - Higher leadership listens to feedback from those below and usually does nothing. - PTO policy (company shuts down for one week at the end of year, and that's used as an excuse to not give enough PTO. Sick leave does not exist. Have an emergency or sickness? Use PTO. Oh right, you don't really get any.)

      Northrop Steals Vacation Time from Employees

      Pros

      Large company with lots of work. Nationally recognized leader in aerospace, defense and space. Competitive pay and benefits package except CONS below:

      Cons

      NG's vacation policy SUCKS. They offer only PTO - Paid Time Off. As a 20 year engineer, I get three weeks. That covers EVERYTHING - sick, vacation, family emergency, and as of Hurricane Nicole, I HAVE to use my own PTO to pay for the days that the plant closed because of a freaking direct hit by a hurricane! Oh, they recommend that I flex my time. Yeah. Need to work 18 hours into 4 days I have left in the work week?

      Pros

      The company name and some people are genuine. Most are long timers that don’t respect new employees unless you are part of the cult. They will leverage your skill set and if they can use you the will.

      Cons

      Cult like, feed you lines like if you don’t like or want to move to another group you can. Totally not true. Keep information from you and hire managers that don’t know what they are doing. My manager didn’t work in the same area, she was HR hired into recruiting. Never managed and it showed
