"I've worked at L-3 for 9 months and can already see why their retention rate for Network Engineers is nothing short of abysmal. The previous set of Engineers were all criminally underpaid and management ignored their complaints about the environment. I would not recommend working at L-3 to anyone."

"L-3 treats all Co-Ops great. The pay is competitive and the tuition reimbursement is a huge bonus. The experience you gain there can be helpful when applying for full-time positions after you graduate. Try to avoid Operations and stay within the Engineering organizations."
