Business Outlook

Pros

Large long term programs. Possibility to move to different programs/different parts of the company. Possibility of changing job focus to a different area of interest in engineering. Much better than average benefits and about average salary. Very good continuing education support.

Cons

Very large management structure that can result in long decision making process. Difficulty achieving next skill level at some programs/sites due to lack of program budget. Sparse communication from senior management during periods of program uncertainty.
