Pros

BAE Systems offers a great work life balance, good benefits, competitive compensation, and great peers. Most work a 9/80 schedule so you get every other friday off, I find this schedule very appealing. Experiences seems to vary widely but I have quite enjoyed my time at BAE systems.

Cons

While most have an extremely flexible schedule, you are required to log your work down to 6 minute intervals. Also due to the 9/80 schedule the 40 hour work week ends in the middle of the day on Friday. This proves rather annoying and entirely pointless. This is however common place in the defense industry.

Pros

My pros are my manager and team coworkers. Outside of that not really a fan. I do well at what I do.

Cons

Honestly, ever since new management has come for the upper VPs and directors, a lot has shifted for the negative. Feels very micromanaging when we were told we were doing fine at home and there was no reason to have us come back in the office. Now suddenly we’re being forced back to the office. Other departments and I don’t really get along because there’s a bunch of petty people just trying to get others in trouble and all I’m doing is trying to do my job. Where I am at, everyone just talks all day and then complains about how much work they have.
