Good place to work, great benefits

Systems engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great benefits, most offices allow flexible work schedules or a 9/80 work schedule. Casual work environment and most managers are very approachable.

Cons

It can be hard to move around to different projects, and there are not many opportunities for advancement in the current market. A lot of company practices seem to be old-fashioned, and many teams don't use current industry-wide tools and practices.

Lots of opportunity, your career is YOUR responsibility

Principal engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Varied career paths, engineering, quality, supply chain, operations, finance. Decent on the job training. There is something for everyone, you just need to find it. Benefits are good, but get slightly more expensive every year. Work Life Balance depends on role - as my responsibility & utility to the company has grown, my life balance has eroded.

Cons

Huge company, easy to get lost in the bureaucracy. Company tends to be reactive to employee development vs. proactive. Front line management is not empowered for substantial action, decisions tend to be made 2 levels up.

Steady company, merit-based promotions

Principal engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Solid company that has wisely invested in both foreign and domestic contracts. Merit based promotions seem fair. Decent opportunities. Company will train you if needed. You can easily make a lifetime career with this company.

Cons

Large company that has too many processes/red tape at times for domestic contracts. United Healthcare is a terrible HMO if you have a family. You will get a bill for everything related to your children/pregnancy/prescriptions.
