UTC Aerospace Systems Employee Reviews about "people"

Pros

-good compensation -flexible hours -people are very friendly and very willing to help and answer questions -people have a lot of pride in the quality of work they do

Cons

-culture is very old and out of date -not much diversity (mostly middle aged white men) -very little thought given to physical environment for workers outside of manufacturing area

Pros

It was a great learning environment and the people that I worked with made it easy to come into work.

Cons

The changing of projects changes as much as the wind which really makes it difficult to get anything completed.

Pros

there was a few good people there.

Cons

but at the same time there are people there that are very lazy and feel like they dont have to work.

Pros

Great benefit of Employee Scholar Program

Cons

Seems like it is hard to grow and move up within the company unless you know the right people

Pros

Company has great people knowledgeable about the product and technology that they are working on. Leadership strives to maintain the former Goodrich culture of trust and respect where possible Option for 9/80 or alternate work schedules to help facilitate work life balance

Cons

Strong insistence on applying the ACE principals often leads to busywork to check the box and demonstrate that the appropriate policies have been followed with little additional value UTC policies are starting to drive out the positive culture of mutual trust and respect that Goodrich had developed

Pros

Some of the coolest products and great people to work with who love what they are doing.

Cons

Never got real chance to experience any negatives. It's a huge organization spread across many states and countries

Pros

I tried really hard to get into this company and so far the people are great! The company seems to really care for their employees in spite of the bad reviews 'ever since the acquisition by UTC'. There are some challenges but nothing out of the ordinary. All companies have challenges.

Cons

Not sure of very many at the moment. It can be challenging (in a decision making perspective)at times to be a division of a larger multinational organization.

Pros

The location cannot be beat. Walking distance to the Bay and Trolley. There are many great people here to work with and if you know the right people you can go far

Cons

You have to know the right people to be successful. Being good at your job is not enough to do well

Pros

Pay and benefits decent. Some of the old time workers who built the success are still there.

Cons

Rotten atmosphere and culture fostered by extremely ambitious managers who use people and throw them away. Worked there 10+ years when it was Goodrich Aero. Seen very senior, very competent people get dressed down publicly and then fired for politics.

Pros

There is enough room to move laterally or vertically and the people who work there are good.

Cons

Company morale was dwindling with the cuts.
