Pros

Good salary and friendly non-management co-workers.

Cons

The department I was employed in had a horrible training program for new out of college engineers. Management will throw you under the bus to save their own behind. It was a horrible experience for me. Constant nagging and bad energy from management made the Test & Evaluation group a nightmarish group to work with. I am grad I left and I don't have to wake up every morning dreading going to work.

Pros

Great immediate supervisor and their boss. Made top-down communications tolerable. Great co-workers and great collaboration that lifted the entire team.

Cons

(1) RIF based on tenure, not performance. HR is too powerful a department, and everyone fears it. (2) Tenure made you lazy, killed creativity, initiative, and promoted a "yes" culture. (3) During COVID layoffs, CEO pay went from $3.7 million to $15.x million, while employees endured 25% furloughs for 3 months, and management 10% reduction in pay for 6 months - explain how that is reasonable. (4) CEO declared DEI as the way forward for career mobility, and a lot of young, promising talent walked out the door, including DEI-qualified minorities. (5) I was one of those minorities.
