"Lack of Accountability"
What do you like about working at Tellabs?
"Average compensation compared to market, although some might have top $ base salary (see next question please.)Average/mediocre coworkers who actually crank out average quality codes (better than Nortel where people are semi-retired.)Average product that actually runs, although won't sell (better than Motorola where product won't even run, thus can't sell.)"
Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"Ask them does years and years of strong performance review actually mean anything How was review conducted And what's the impact to bonuses, pay raise, or simply job security"
What don't you like about working at Tellabs?
"No transparency even though they claim to be. There are obviously two worlds inside/outside of a tight circle. Once you are in, you get everything without accountability. So stay as close to senior mgmt as you can. If years and years of hard-work and strong review won't get you in, without shoe-shining or boot-licking, it's time for the next move."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"Three keywords: fairness, transparency, and accountability."

"PW Power Systems embodies small company appeal while being part of a large corporation"
What do you like about working at Pratt & Whitney?
"Everyone is very professional, mannered, knowledgeable, and focused on teamwork. There is very little internal politics here relative to the much larger Pratt & Whitney. As a small organization with plenty of work to be done, everyone is focused on the job and less so on personal advantage at the expense of co-workers."
What don't you like about working at Pratt & Whitney?
"PWPS was a standalone division, but was brought inside into Pratt & Whitney once they started turning a profit. Consequently, they inherited all of Pratt's substantial policies & procedures, which dampened the small company feel of the division."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"None. I have nothing but praise for the Engineering and Corporate Managers at this division."

"Pratt's focus on process and outsourcing could jeopardize their position as a standalone engine designer & manufacturer."
What do you like about working at Pratt & Whitney?
"The majority of non-management employees are very knowledgeable and professional, and PWA's size allows one exposure to nearly every aspect of jet engine design, development, and manufacture."
Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"Negotiate the best salary / benefits package up front. Be aware that PWA's focus on process and outsourcing could mean that you should regard any position as lasting 3-4 years unless you are exceptional and/or performing work that cannot be outsourced due to security concerns."
What don't you like about working at Pratt & Whitney?
"PWA runs an extremely lean organization, and as such everyone there is working beyond capacity. As such, PWA is heavily process-driven to the point where good enough is good enough and there's always time to fix it later. Innovation, when it occurs, is quickly captured as a process, and then outsourced to lower-cost labor (such as Infotech or Quest, which PWA is a part owner)."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"While PWA preaches doing it right the first time, they appear too lean to accomplish this, and the rework required by their outsourced staff only exacerbates this. It would benefit some in management to appreciate that first time right, even if more costly up front, provides savings in the long term."
