Pros

-Important missions for key DoD and Intel customers -Good opportunities to work with customers directly. This is where the satisfaction comes from -Above average pay -Excellent benefits

Cons

- Still trying desperately to look like a small company and pretend to be "family oriented". Its not real - CEO in over his head. Lacks the gravitas or leadership to take things to the next level. Poor communicator. Professional development is narrow. - Management "Team" includes about 10-12 personnel, all vying for attention and prestige. Show me another company at this revenue level behaving like this. -Core Values are somewhat contrived and selectively enforced. A couple make no business sense. - ESOP will become an albatross as time goes on and growth rates can't be sustained. too many small companies fell into this trap. MTSI will experience same problems -Company refuses to subscribe to engineering management methods. Everything is homegrown at management and infrastructure level. Unusual for an engineering firm. Sort of like the mechanic whose car doesn't run. -Really 3 separate companies (HSV, DAY, DC) masquerading as a single entity.

Great company, great benefits, and great senior leadership support and management of company

MTSI has several large hub locations (i.e. Alabama, Ohio, Florida, etc), but I wish they were in more locations.
