BAE

Toxic work environment
Supervisor (Former Employee), New Hampshire – May 16, 2013
Pros: dysfunctional environment makes for good george orwell research material
Cons: soldiers probably dying needlessly
Toxic 'Reverse Discrimination' culture sanctioned by the EEOC/OFCCP, Pudson, and the ObamaNation crowd.

An employee can only survive with a Cronyism, Activism, and/or Nepotism connection.

The cream will never rise to the top at BAE Systems.

Any positive image BAE projects is the result of a well funded PR department.

If you aren't American born, – more... or you have the preferred color skin, BAE will take care of you at the taxpayers' expense. – less

A great Company to work for sometimes focusing on people makes the work place better
Intelligence Analyst (Former Employee), Afghanistan – May 4, 2013
Pros: they took care of their employees

A lot of computer work and diagrams were required daily. I learned a lot of new ways to create products. The hardest part of the job was the danger and living conditions. The most enjoyable part of the job was seeing my work go to use.
