How are the career development opportunities at BAE Systems USA?

Theres no pros to a company that doesnt practice what they preach on ethics. No career advancement, no equal opportunity, and they don’t stand by their employees. Went up the chain of command with how a particular manager and director treated me, and not one single person on the chain of command listened or took me seriously. I went to the EEOC with my evidence and BAE Systems didnt answer the charge or the mediation… Guilty. That manager still has his job… They dont promote from within, and if you do, you don’t receive the pay along with it for years unless you push back. I didnt realize how true that bad managers ad companies can really push out great employees. Sad because I really liked some of the people I worked with.

Everything. No equal opportunity especially for women. No career advancement, and its a Boys Club. If you’re a female, they will isolate you and push you out. No culture either. These managers will take your career and crumble it as if its nothing. All the hard work down the drain.

Above average pay, atmosphere, positive culture, plenty of opportunities to advance, and lots of benefits.

The management style lends itself to little disciplinary action being take, this results in quite a lot of low performing employees hanging on until the next RIF. RIF’s typically occur every 1-3 years and they typically include the lowest performing employees.

The hybrid schedule is a major benefit and provides a good balance between in-office collaboration and flexibility.

Career growth can feel limited if you are not originally from Utah or already connected within the local organization. Time off can feel limited compared to the government customer you support. The customer often receives more holidays and administrative leave, but contractor employees may still be constrained by sector policies even when the contract generally follows the customer’s schedule.

I loved the company and received a lot of recognition for the work I did, for the customers I interacted with which were awesome to work with, the work was simple and easy.

Even though I received a lot of recognition throughout the company's other sites, I received poor reviews from management. Which then I learned they put a no rehire on me. Sad a company would resort to this and it will fall eventually because the foundation is not strong at all. Poor benefits and lack of support from management. lack of documentation, if any ideas are brought up, management steals them from you. A veteran who worked on my team was called a traitor because he moved sectors to another position. Their moto is null if they are not protecting their own let alone their veterans. Definitely wasted a lot of time here.

Flex time, great career growth opportunities, excellent local management.

Customer can be difficult to manage at times, tuition reimbursement is different depending on the business area you work in.

Great people, good work environment, and plenty of support.

Lack of career advancement opportunities.

This is a great place to grow in your career. Yearly opportunities are provided for your career development. Past employers have said they will help but only will if "their" schedule allows it; this place will provide you the time and budgeted money to aid in your goals as a professional. There is a 9 day/80 hour work period, which allows for an extra day off in a 2-week period.

At times, the level of personal responsibility tends to be overlooked to the point of no accountability. It makes you feel like there is no competitive salary benefit when you succeed and others do not. For the last 3-years, there has been an annual lay-off for both union and salary workers; it's generally a small handful of people, This lay-off usually consists of redundant or obsolete positions, but it reminds you of how insecure your job might be.

Company promotes career development & great tuition assistance program. Bigger company that implements lean technologies.

Some fluctuation of work depending on contracts.

Great company that provides exposure to a lot of cross functional experience

While opportunities are abundant, career progression in your current role is close to impossible. Most engineers are over worked, often supporting the role of multiple people at times.
