What don't you like about working at BAE Systems?

They run our services-oreinted business (which accounts for about 1/2 the company revenue) like a hardware manufacturing plant, but with totally outdated tools. Corporate management has no concept of customer focus. Corporate management has no concept of employee priorities and morale."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"Develop a basic understanding of our service business or sell off the division to a company that gets it. Delegate more authority away from headquarters to the divisions and program managers. Forget this Great Places to Work initiative until you have figured out how to make it an ok place to work."
