Pros

There is a diversity of work and opportunities, and it is easy to find something new to work on without having to leave the company. Management generally will help you move into an area of your interest if you work with them to generate a plan. The company is focused on diversifying talent, people, and creating an inclusive workforce. Work is interesting and engaging. L3Harris is accommodating of employees with families, and allows reduced schedules while remaining full time for employees who ask.

Cons

Once established as an employee, salary doesn't rise as rapidly as your value in industry. You may have to really push for an adjustment or look for opportunities outside of the company to adjust your salary. Not all managers are engaged in ensuring employee satisfaction. If you find yourself under a checked out manager it will be completely up to you to drive your career without management assistance.

Pros

Missions are impactful to the world Top talent in specialized fields Wonderful people Respectful environment

Cons

Processes and policies are not robust enough to support the large growth / merger, which leaves everyone operating in silos and interpreting things in their own ways Shared service model is not structured properly Not enough critical thinking around how budgets should be allocated for tools, capital, and salaries Higher level leaders are too in the weeds and not working on the harder strategic aspects Businesses are not aligned with common products to gain best synergies as all businesses fight to defend $s not what actually makes sense for the company (radios sharing same suppliers are in completely different segments; CCAs are built across 10+ different factories managed by different management teams instead of a couple of large COEs) All leaders felt unempowered due to lack of ownership of budgets. Budgets were set but then adjusted at further levels without any additional discussion of new targets and how to achieve. Then budgets would be reallocated a few months into year if you weren't demonstrating that you truly need it. This drove teams to spend heavy up front and not make the smartest decisions at times
