What do you like best about the leadership team?

Leadership Reviews

They are very reponsive to my questions.

Always available, very responsive and stays on top of everything that involves our scope of work.

Focused on the mission and solving employee's problems to help complete the mission

Not only do they lead from the front but they listen as well

Always available to help with any issues

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership Reviews

giving raises to the folks that earn them.

Care about my career growth or development

being more inclusive with workers that do not work at a desk. Start making us feel valued for the contributions we make to completing the goals of the company.

Clearly envision and set up a production area before attempting to produce an aircraft.

Communicating across the entire organization within the division. Information is not being properly disseminated to the lowest level. The push for standardized processes is not adequately supported. Not enough time and resources are invested in proper implementation of systems such as new ERP.

What is the best part about your compensation package?

Compensation Reviews

My salary, 401k, and insurance

Pay, health benefits and equity

I believe they are fair and they do meet my needs

Salary is highly competitive, and PTO is good, especially for this part of the country

Company paid health care is nice.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Compensation Reviews

Comparing from previous positions with other companies and colleagues my compensation if nowhere near theirs.

Of course, pay is always a factor, and more of it is desired. Sometimes additional duties or helping others becomes excessive with no pay compensation.

Should be compensated more for the amount of work I am doing, and I wish more professional development was offered and company offered higher 401k match

I push hard to learn everything I can and be an asset to the team. Take time to train employees and sign off inspections. What would make me feel better would to be treated like everyone else when it comes to getting a raise. Management should want to retain their top employees.

Falling behind the pay scale of both personnel in similar functions in my area and benefits are less inviting than almost all similar organizations.

What are some of the best things about your team?

Team Reviews

They are friendly and engaging

Everybody knows their job, good and knowledgeable supervisors leading the way on the field, and managers that care about our well being.

Skilled, focused and solution oriented

Very friendly work environment and allow me room to grow

Very cohesive, fun, hardworking, and compatible.

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Team Reviews

My work environment lacks professionalism and is driven by senority

My coworkers are overworked with limited resources in critical programs. Not enough program managers, project managers, project controllers, and finance support for the level of required effort put forth by senior leadership.

They don't really seem to care much about the department or the mission of the company. None of us really speak to each other so that could improve as well.

None of my coworkers want to work here either and complain about pay, responsibilities, and overall team energy, effort, etc. It's a depressing environment overall.

We have some difficult personalities to work with, which ruin everyone's moral.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Environment Reviews

Knowing each other's roles and performing well at it.

Everyone pulls for the same goals

All inclusive and forward thinking

Most of the employees are or were military. That creates a very disciplined work environment.

We are making a positive impact for the warfighter, as well as trying to do some cutting edge engineering

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Environment Reviews

I have nothing to add here.

Company culture does not exist as a contractor. We are local to San Diego like the company but no one comes to visit us from Salona but maybe once a year.

Move to Slack. It's the greatest communication platform for transparency.

I dont work with anyone as a deployed personal, every one I work with is SNC

reminds me of high school culture it is very cliquey and if your not in a group you feel like an outsider

What did you like most about the interview process?

Interviews Reviews

It probably varies depending on the specific job or program that you're on, but in my case, the initial interview was a very relaxed and informal chat with the program manager. He basically told me on the spot that he intended to hire me. A second interview was done with HR "as a formality".

I like how my work style and personality was rated and assigned a graph. Very cool.

We invest a lot of time in the interview process and ensuring we are hiring people that are a good fit for both the role and the culture.

Review from HR Dept

Interviewing, at least the first stages, is the same standardized format for everyone from admin to C suite. It's reassuring that everyone is treated fairly, and with the same experience with the hiring managers.

What makes you most happy at work?

Outlook Reviews

Accomplishing the mission and learning new skills

Performing well and learning new things

Having the ability to do things that shape the company and warfighter's future

Always busy and makes the day go fast.

Seeing my team and most of the time knowing beforehand what to expect.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Outlook Reviews

Travel is very important to me, yet opportunities for it are scarce in this role. The same is true for training; outside of position-specific requirements, there are few avenues for professional development. Leadership opportunities are also limited

incentives and pay increases will be nice so we don't have to worry about money, bill and second jobs

Employee appreciation for workers on the shop floor and eliminate the divide between office workers and shop floor employees.

It feels like walking into a slaughter house every day. We have watched some of the best and brightest being pulled from actively working to be discarded like trash. Most of them immediately after making mountains move to complete a mission.

Senior leadership continually creates conditions for program failure that require extraordinary effort to manage, mitigate, or correct. High degree of persistent task oversaturation forcing team to accept substandard solutions in order to maintain schedules and task volume/throughput. Fix = Hire
