Pluspunten

The people that work there are great, they want the best for the company and want it to be an amazing place to keep a career and grow the business. The type of work is unique and is greatly gratifying knowing the hard work we put in goes further down the line into the training of law enforcement and military personnel as well as the basic citizen.

Minpunten

The management however does not do a good job harnessing and utilize the abilities of their employees. The manager of the department that I was in literally had no background in our department and told us that he has no desire to learn about it, he was just going to 'manage' the team. How can you manage a department when you have no idea how that department works and help your team get the necessary support they need? Further more he made no effort to understand or get involved with the department to help. Bottom line, we were not getting any help and with additions of new products that we had no training on, everybody was seeking direction. But did anything change, No, our manager told upper management everything was fine and we were working on addressing the problems. which never really happened. We were told to work overtime. Which brings up the next issue, the upper management is rarely even in the office. When they are around it was a rarity and a running joke throughout the rest of the staff. They seem to have little interaction with any of the 'workers' and it shows. One of the things that i thought was most strange is that none of the departments work together to address issues or make the overall process of things work well. If the time spent on 'cover your a..' was spent on eliminating the problem and coming up with a solution in the first place, productivity would go through the roof not to mention the moral between departments would be good for once. All this mismanagement is finally catching up and there are projects not getting done on schedule and customers are not happy. As upper management pushes to submit orders and increase the bottom line, steps are being skipped and mistakes are being made pushing projects back, needless to say, customers are not happy. I would recommend finding employment elsewhere.

Systems are extremely out of date and disconnected and the board is unwilling to invest in IT infrastructure creating a mass amount of technical debt.
