"I've been employed with NGC for 7+ years and am grateful for the opportunity that was given to me. I had no experience in the aerospace/manufacturing industry, but NGC gave me a chance and I've been able to thrive while developing many critical career skills."

"I've worked here for several years. They are big at pushing certain types of employees up into leadership positions that are not necessarily qualified. Unfortunately, if you don't get on the right track or are not part of the right group you remain stuck in a position that you may not be able to escape."

"The community here at Northrop Grumman is a dog-eat-dog one. If starting out fresh with no prior knowledge it is hard to find a mentor or someone to teach you the ropes. It is a lot of self-teaching and bumping your head but if you don't mind cracking some eggs to make an omelet you will fit in just fine"

"I worked at Astro for 2+ years as a contract engineer. I loved working on 5 programs dealing with deployable satellite reflector antennas. All of my coworkers were exceptional people along with my immediate boss. A decision was made by management to release the 12 contract engineers working at Astro after 2 + years due to budgetary restraints. All 12 of us would work there again if asked."
