Pros

BAE hired me at 55 and I retired from there. More stable than many companies. Many small programs if one is slowed down there is other work.

Cons

Senior management is disorganized. There were 3 presidents at the same time. I think that only one reported to the UK the other two reported to the senior president. ( my title not hers) At the time I left I was unsure of the actual management structure.

Pros

My pros are my manager and team coworkers. Outside of that not really a fan. I do well at what I do.

Cons

Honestly, ever since new management has come for the upper VPs and directors, a lot has shifted for the negative. Feels very micromanaging when we were told we were doing fine at home and there was no reason to have us come back in the office. Now suddenly we’re being forced back to the office. Other departments and I don’t really get along because there’s a bunch of petty people just trying to get others in trouble and all I’m doing is trying to do my job. Where I am at, everyone just talks all day and then complains about how much work they have.
