Pros

I worked at the old Hughes plant in El Segundo,which is now Boeing Satellites. Decent work, good pay, good benefits. Worked there for ten years and it was the people that made it a great place to work. Management allowed you to flex your time when needed or work from home. The work could be fun at times.

Cons

The company is knee deep in bureaucracy. The upper management, which located in St. Luis, is the old McDonnell Douglas management trying to run things in El Segundo, the same ones that ran Douglas into the ground. They are trying to flatten the management again and run the company by hiring collage grads and others at very low pay and laying off the experienced employees that know how to do things.

Pros

Easy going, nice benefits, free further education (masters/PhD). Great for an engineer starting out who needs to dip their feet in the pool of engineering for a few years and to get a great 401(k) match at the start of your career (compounding growth). Great for late stage career due to the benefits and solid enough pay in a low cost of living area

Cons

pay-scale lagging, no emphasis on learning new things, no punishment for people who are bad at their job. After working for 4 years, I feel like I should have jumped ship after 2. I haven't been given meaningful work that really challenges me in a while. Now I feel pigeonholed into staying because I have enough years of experience that I really should be considered senior, but I haven't been given work that reflects what I senior engineer should be capable of. Now I'm trying to jump ship before it's really too late. If I stay here another 2 years I think I will be genuinely unemployable and will have to stay at this company forever.
