Pros

There are lots of pros working for Pratt. You get to work with very talented people and you get to learn A LOT. Depending on the department you are working for, flexibility is allowed. You can work from home when it snows or when you get sick, there are plenty of sick and vacation days. 401K match is standard 6% which is nice.

Cons

Promotions and yearly salary increases are almost non-existent. Yes, you may get lucky and end up in a highly visible group and potentially have a great career, but for most folks it's not the case. It's not about your work ethics, it's not about your dedication, it's mostly about who you know. In case you're like me, who works very hard and puts in 130% into everything you do, is just not enough to get a decent raise or promotion of any kind. Heck even my manager told me that I have to spend more time socializing and less time working if I want any kind of future in the company. For the past 3 years I have received an increase b/n $1500-$2000/year. and no indication of any time of promotion, mind that I have over 15 years of experience in my field of work

Pros

Flexible work week. As long as you reach 40 hours for the week, doesn't matter when you come/go each day. Food is pretty good.

Cons

Quick growth to P3, but growth after that stagnates/fails to be competitive in salary

Pros

Concern for Safety is a legitimate priority. The work is very process oriented and theres little uncertainty or chaos in the day to day. Theres a formalized way of doing everything. Work-life balance is good for the american standard.

Cons

The company is 100+ years old so the way things get done is over-constrained and very resistant to change. As a result work can be monotonous and Information, while abundant, is extremely difficult to reliably retreive. You will work harder not smarter.
