Pros
PW works on some of the coolest, hardest problems that you can work on as an engineer. There are alot of incredibly talented people here drawn to working on those problems that are amazing to work with. The pay and benefits are about average for the industry but not amazing. There is also alot of opportunity if you get positioned correctly and the potential to make a career here but there is luck involved. Even if you only stay for a few years it can be a good place to learn and grow, but it is somewhat up to the group and luck.
Cons
If you do decide to try and make a career here be careful. PW recently fired a bunch of people the day after reporting that the company was making more than it was making the previous year and overall doing well. This "layoff" didn't target low performers, overstaffed departments, or projects that are being canceled. Many of people were key personnel and many others were new, recently hired people that could have been moved to areas in need. These "layoffs" were entirely increase profit margins to appease shareholders and csuite with no thought to the impact on the moral of the workforce. PW has dealt with alot recently. During covid there was a hiring freeze, furloughs, no merit, voluntary separations, forced separations (firings). After they tried to hire themselves out of the hole they had put themselves into staffing wise to support the rebounding aero market and as a temporary solution had forced overtime for months. Then they had new issues which caused a fresh hiring freeze and below inflation merit increases. Now, when it seems things are finally getting going in the right direction again, they shoot what was left of employee moral out back behind the woodshed to pad the profits with the aforementioned "layoffs". I hope this is the last of the bleeding but I can't help but feel it is not.
