Pros

Good experience and opportunities if you're willing to work hard and engage in learning.

Cons

The company has been pandering to the "early professional" crowd for some time. Unilateral pay raises not tied to performance, no real accountability for completing work, leaving everything to the more experienced group. They are not a fan of this mandatory overtime policy however. Many of those further in their career are very overworked and already doing overtime (thanks to Pratt for offering to pay for some of it now). However, I was walking by some younger engineers in the office recently and I overheard them talking about inviting unions in. Looking forward to watching that play out. They had plans to meet up and everything. Guess they got tired of moving their mouse for an extra two hours a day. I can't believe upper management wants more of this.

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.
