Pros

9/80 work schedule, decent benefits, OT pay, interesting missions and technologies for big names.

Cons

This place was once something but currently is having many struggles due to legacy employees retiring and the site seeking programs it can't efficiently support with current resources. That being said there are many people, business people and scientists alike, who are sincerely trying to work to improve the site. Also, something will be stupid wherever one is employed...So, be aware accepting employment here, especially if you are a PM, is accepting that you are going to have to find a way to work in a volatile environment that is broken and outdated which in turn adds high levels of stress to the resident staff (and yourself perhaps) as well as increases the difficulty in keeping customers happy.

Pros

Missions are impactful to the world Top talent in specialized fields Wonderful people Respectful environment

Cons

Processes and policies are not robust enough to support the large growth / merger, which leaves everyone operating in silos and interpreting things in their own ways Shared service model is not structured properly Not enough critical thinking around how budgets should be allocated for tools, capital, and salaries Higher level leaders are too in the weeds and not working on the harder strategic aspects Businesses are not aligned with common products to gain best synergies as all businesses fight to defend $s not what actually makes sense for the company (radios sharing same suppliers are in completely different segments; CCAs are built across 10+ different factories managed by different management teams instead of a couple of large COEs) All leaders felt unempowered due to lack of ownership of budgets. Budgets were set but then adjusted at further levels without any additional discussion of new targets and how to achieve. Then budgets would be reallocated a few months into year if you weren't demonstrating that you truly need it. This drove teams to spend heavy up front and not make the smartest decisions at times
