Innovative Engineering, cubicle corporate life
You get to work on some highly innovative engineering projects here, and at least you get paid well.
It's far too large and corporate for my own liking now.
I used to be able to have a lot of time to do meaningful engineering. Now most of it is spent doing meaningless bureaucratic paperwork.
There are too many program managers who ask for updates and then do nothing to resolve roadblocks for you, but are happy to get credit for running a "smooth" program.
There's no career progression here really. It's just a matter of chance and who above you leaves or what budget allows.
Cut back on the number of executives and program managers. I honestly think our programs would run better without many of our program managers, considering engineers are already doing the management work except without the pay or credit.
