Pros

Good people. Dynamic market with opportunities for innovation and growth.

Cons

Family owned business dominated by insular thinking. Management idoes not care about their employees - attitude is "don't like it go someplace else". Petty squabbling and infighting amongst senior managers gets in the way of getting work done. Senior managers are slow to make decusions but quick to blame when trhings don't go right. No planning, no strategy - just make the numbers.

Pros

They work with legacy and new systems, good if you want to get into aerospace. They do multiple projects for interns and you can pick and choose which interest you and what do you want to do. You can even go out of your ur way and do other stuff outside of the official projects if you want more exposure to something specific or if you want more experience in your resume.

Cons

Right now they really want to focus on AI and Physics. So more opportunities for those majors, maybe even EE, not so much for ME nowadays.
