Once you are a white male over 50, and not already a vice president, you’re basically dead in the water and going nowhere unless you leave the company or they force you out in a layof

What makes you most happy at work?

I appreciate the autonomy of my role and the projects that I get to work on.

What would you improve about your company's interview process?

The talent acquisition process is incredibly slow and if you aren’t being fast-tracked that you get zero communication for month

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

There is no stock or equity for employees who are not in an executive compensation plan. Benefits are terrible and get worse every year. Processes for compensation are opaque and inconsistent.

What are some of the best things about your team?

They are genuinely decent people who mean well and have the best of intentions, although that is often met by obstacles that are self-I posted within the company. Also, way too many layers and way too much focus on politics and positioning.

What do you like best about the leadership team?

The new EVP for the Space business is a great person who has a vision for the future, but there is a disconnect between his message and the actions we see at the next level down. So we are moving sideways and in some cases backwards instead of forward.
