Falling star, middling stock, rising resentment

Talent development program manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Pay is on par with other Aerospace & Defense contractors, even if slightly less when edged out from benefits Mission-focus is always appreciated; very dedicated employee base Very generous continuing education programs

Cons

Poor leadership from UTC transplants suffering from focus on quarterly stock price instead of long term commitments, quality, and safety Company takes advantage of salaried employees' dedication; frequently lays off positions and dumps remaining work on survivors. Jobs applied for internally may have been held previously by 3-9 people Company has a "shooting star" mentality for top performers -- often fooled by narcissists, shameless self-promoters, and connected sycophants. Hard-working, quiet, unassuming and humble leaders are often passed over unless they've learned how to play the game. Technical expertise and decency take a backseat to promoting "the next big thing" for the company.
