Pros

Cool Technology, You work on and produce military products. The new technology is exciting and challenging. Thats of course when actual development was being performed and over the years this opportunity has dwindled away.

Cons

You are not cared about as an individual. Management will move you around without notice and since the business is declining, there is little to no opportunity to advance in your career. You will not be rewarded for doing your job.

Pros

Not much pros but talented coworkers.

Cons

I joined expecting a long-term career and initially had a positive experience. Unfortunately, the culture changed significantly after leadership transitions. Micromanagement increased, decision-making became highly centralized, and employee morale steadily declined. Many experienced employees and managers left during my time there, making it difficult to maintain continuity and trust within the organization. The work itself was meaningful, and I had the opportunity to support important projects with talented colleagues. However, recognition, career growth, and employee retention did not appear to receive the same level of attention as process, reporting, and management oversight. My layoff was communicated as unrelated to performance, which was appreciated. However, after years of contribution and institutional knowledge, the overall experience left me feeling that employees were viewed as replaceable rather than valued long-term assets.
