New engineering reorganization is a MAJOR DISASTER! Avoid working here!
Pros
They do pay on time. They do offer a 401k The lights are on.
Cons
Directors just reorganized engineers from an overall department to a Business Unit. They will say there is the freedom to move around the organization, but you are now stuck in one business unit. The attrition rate is high at around 10%. The benefits are sub-par. The work can get dull, and you may work with bad people at times. You will find yourself nodding and smiling while disagreeing with others in the workplace. I cannot honestly recommend this place to anyone. Go work somewhere else where the bureaucracy is not going to stop you from growing. The new reorganization prevents growth! Let me re-emphasize that, there is NO growth for you now at NG. Basically, you will need to wait for someone to retire or die to get promoted. This will lead to a higher attrition rate. The sad part is that during all-hands meetings directors will lie to your face and tell you it is the greatest thing in the world. Don't believe them, employee surveys show that over 70% of employees distrust and don't like Sr. Leadership. That is because they only care about themselves. The work is mostly classified, and you will need to go in to work in closed areas all the time. These areas are dirty. Once you are in a classified job, you can't get out of it so you are stuck. This was an OK place to work, now is a place I cannot recommend. Wait for Sr. Leadership to reorganize again in 2 years, as this experiment of them to save money is just a ticking timebomb. I expect attrition to grow up into the teens, if not 20%. One more thing. Expect 3% raises while inflation runs at 8% for two years. Again, they don't really care about you! The only time they care is when you get hired. After that, you are stuck. You can do an awesome job, but only get a 3% raise. If you do excellent work, you will get 3.5%, if you are a top performer, then maybe a 4% raise. The company will complain that such is the labor rate, but we all know that is just a way for them to not pay their employees more money or adjust for the high cost of living. There is a bonus for a select few, but the large majority of employees will never see that bonus, although you will get a 1k bonus for sharing success. This place went downhill during the COVID years, now with this new "Reorg" this place is about to hit bottom. Avoid working here, find a better place to work.
