Attrition rate is above average, with teams who should be made of 4+ people being sustained by 1 person (who might just end up being the newest member of the team). Horrifically, some contracts are bid this way, so you always run into the conversation of "we are going to upset the customer if we tell them we need help" and it becomes an escape goat statement to not hire the appropriate amount of support for the volume of work.
Old tools that require a massive amount of reconciliation which eats away at your productivity. As more time goes on, a higher amount of your personal time has to go into patching their output. If you dont teach your self how to do this, you are labeled "ineffective" for waiting for the tool to run overnight.
Leadership does not listen to the ideas or concerns voiced by employees who are trying to help them retain talent and keep their tenure-ship at RTX . Comments are dismissed, which include hard numbers forwarded for increasing work pay to what competitors are actually offering, asking for a TRUE wage analysis based on the type of skillsets they want to hire, in tandem performing a separate analysis before hiring others onto their teams so that there is an equal consideration based on skillsets and asking to treat each other with dignity, instead of calling them late at night or on weekends constantly to help with the slack from other teammates/departments
Understaffed departments will bleed their responsibilities on to yours - expect it
Toxic work environment that promotes bypassing high performers to promote friends or former colleagues into higher-level roles
Lack of trust between employees and departments which leads to on-going blunt/vocal disrespect during team calls/meetings, highly dysfunctional teamwork, and a lack of commitment to achieve shared goals
