A struggle to love
A struggle to love
They're profitable, you'll do some cool stuff, and your stock will probably be worth something one day.
It's a struggle to love this company as someone who has been in the defense space for 11 years. I want to love where I work, and believe in why we're doing it. This company is very profit focused, which clashes with the defense culture. I also think you don't really "learn" here. Certainly there are things you learn to do, but there is a massive tendency for young talent to be perpetual code monkeys powered by AI.
