Pluspunten
The pay is good. At the time I was hired, there was still a defined benefit (pension) plan. No longer available for new hires. Flextime - Seems mgmt is genuinely concerned w/home-work life balance
Minpunten
Little or no chance of advancement after you hit a certain tier (level 3). Too many mgmt levels between Individual contributors and those that make promotion decsions (first lines don't have much impact on those decsions). Defense Industry - It appears to be lean times ahead. We are doing more with less and it seems (at least in MST) our ranks are shrinking. Too much time and $$ is spent on the PR aspects of "Inclusion, Diversity etc...). Policies are in place to make this a good work environment, but it seems that they advertise to appease the "PC" media and outside interests, when it really is not needed.
