      Great place to be

      Procurement

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      A collaborative workplace that encourages knowledge sharing and continuous learning. Leadership is receptive to process improvement suggestions and actively encourages team members to share their ideas. For employees interested in advancing into management roles, the company offers programs focused on developing leadership skills.

      Cons

      Recruiting individuals with expertise in FAR and DFAR is inherently difficult in this industry, often leading to understaffing and added pressure on existing employees.

      Good Company but A Bit Top-Heavy

      Senior structural engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good working environment Exciting projects Great coworkers (for the most part, like any place)

      Cons

      Like any maturing company, it has become more and more top-heavy, placing more and more emphasis on project management and milestones, sometimes over bread-and-butter engineering. I could have half the PMs I have now and do a better job
