What are some of the best things about your team?

Everyone here is fairly smart

What makes you most happy at work?

Working on technology for aerospace

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership at PW is nothing more than puppets on gold strings. Management isn’t paid to make wave

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

PW has an odd interview process in that you meet with mostly members of management and very few of your actual working group. When you arrive for work on your first day, you are awkwardly introduced to members of your group.

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

At PW, they are constantly telling you that you are the best in the world; however when it comes to pay expect raises below the inflation rate. Raises are so-so the first few years and then it’s your turn in the barre

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

PW could be a great place to work if they eliminated unnecessary layers of management and allowed workers to focus solely on jet engine production and development. There are too many fluff programs that PW employees are forced to participate in for the career benefit of management.
