Pros
- Coworkers are extremely willing to lend help whenever you need it - Lots of diversity in the types of work I did; I was able to learn a lot - Textron Systems appears to really invest in its employees and give them opportunities for movement (both vertically and horizontally) throughout the company. The Leadership Development Program (LDP) seems like a great opportunity for newer hires as well.
Cons
- Not all of the offices are in very glamorous locations, but that's ok. - The culture at Textron Systems has a strong military influence as many of our employees are veterans; this is neither a pro nor a con, but it should be noted. - During my time at Textron, I saw a dozen or so people get laid off. This is fairly typical in any corporation, but again it must be noted.
