Pros

Great company if you want to get a Master's to further your career, This is further exemplified in their corporate culture by increasing education benefits while cutting everything else.

Cons

Poor pay, poor benefits (cut TWICE in 1.5 years), bad PTO, terrible work environment, and dense top leadership

Pros

Job security, upward mobility if you put in significant years. Work/life balance is by far the best thing about this company due to the 9 x 80 schedule.

Cons

There is room for upward movement within the company but it takes quite a bit of time. Compensation is a bit low for Silicon Valley standards. The company is not flashy and does not offer many perks. Rotational programs are highly competitive and not particularly effective.

Pros

Company is stable, well-known and revered in the market. Moving around (laterally) within the company is fairly easy. Getting every other Friday off and Christmas vacation is a plus.

Cons

Lack of diversity in leadership. Leadership often does not stand by employees. Completely disorganized. Constantly rolling out new company-wide initiatives that never pan out. Work-life balance isn't the greatest. Pay is low compared to market. Benefits package has declined. Lots of nepotism, favoritism, and lack of advancement for the hard-working. Talent is often overloaded with work while under-performers aren't reprimanded. HR works against employees, ethics board is a joke and retaliation is rampant when wrongdoing is reported. Constant layoffs. Advancement is nearly impossible. If you are forward-thinking, creative, and looking to grow, avoid Aeronautics all together. Nine times out of ten you will be doing work that does not correlate to your skills--or doing work that does nothing to grow or enhance your competences.
