Pros

We have some great dedidated people with some solid products.

Cons

Calhoun hires executives at millionaire rates who cant manage. He fired workers when employment was high then tries to hire them back at historic unemeployment lows. Procure ment goes through Arriba and India for the same part from Amazon at 40% less. BA pays Dell for useless contractors. Calhoun oferred 50 shares for staffers to stay 3 more years. Most left. You will be pressured to work without pay to pickup the slack for slackers. It can be a toxic environment.

Pros

Easy going, nice benefits, free further education (masters/PhD). Great for an engineer starting out who needs to dip their feet in the pool of engineering for a few years and to get a great 401(k) match at the start of your career (compounding growth). Great for late stage career due to the benefits and solid enough pay in a low cost of living area

Cons

pay-scale lagging, no emphasis on learning new things, no punishment for people who are bad at their job. After working for 4 years, I feel like I should have jumped ship after 2. I haven't been given meaningful work that really challenges me in a while. Now I feel pigeonholed into staying because I have enough years of experience that I really should be considered senior, but I haven't been given work that reflects what I senior engineer should be capable of. Now I'm trying to jump ship before it's really too late. If I stay here another 2 years I think I will be genuinely unemployable and will have to stay at this company forever.
