Pros

Good coworkers Consistent work Clean environment Opportunities to move up/Hires from within

Cons

Below-average pay. Inadequate training for new employees across the board. Extremely meager "merit increases" that don't match performance reviews or even keep up with inflation. Continually reducing benefits Not allowed to be onsite after 5pm, many people struggle to make 40 hours a week. Their "fix" for this was to offer a 30-hour full-time status option with reduced PTO accrual rate - twisting the knife in the wound. Very bad at accommodating anyone with human needs, if you aren't a robot, you're a problem. Lots of "visual benefits" that aren't really benefits (snacks, parties with raffles, keurig machines). Everything went downhill when the previous CEO (John Purvis) passed. I think he was the last barrier keeping this place from becoming a corporate soul-sucking hell. It's not completely gone yet, and I'm not sure how the merge with Redwire will change things, but it's not looking good.

Pros

There are some great people and interesting projects. The day-to-day work is rarely boring. The work experience you gain here could help you land a great job at a competitive aerospace and defense company. A lot of people have been able to use their experience at Edge as a springboard for their careers at other companies.

Cons

You will be severely underpaid for your labor. HR will only allow one raise per year, and it feels like pulling teeth to get a raise that matches the cost-of-living increase, even if you're a high performer. Management is out of touch, and the engineering department is a mess with no organizational structure. A once great company is trying to ride out its prior success until it gets acquired and passes off the mess to someone else. Now, Redwire is caught holding the bag.
