Bae Systems Work Values

Daily Duties at Bae Systems:

KomNod Capture Team •Traveled with my capture team to Stockholm, Sweden in order to meet with executives from Cisco Systems and Atea, an IT-Management Company. •Participated in a 6-hour brainstorming session to discuss the technical requirements for a KomNod, a Network Based Defense system. During this discussion I asked probing questions in order to ascertain the Voice of the Customer and the fundamental requirements of the system. •We then traveled to Örnsköldsvik, Sweden to meet with a Business Enterprise executive from our BAE Systems Hägglunds AB Division. We began working towards a collaborative effort between BAE Systems North America and our Swedish counterparts. •Based on the information I’d gained from these meetings, after returning to the states, I performed a trade study of the network management system to be used for the defense system, created a 10-page SOW for Atea, and a work breakdown for their work share for the proposal, among other necessary tasks. C2 MRAP Vehicle •Worked with employees from BAE Systems Austin, Texas on the communications system for a C2 (command and control) MRAP (mine resistant ambush protected) vehicle. This is a collaborate effort among engineers from San Diego, Austin and Wayne. •In January, 2009 we met in Austin for a few days for a networking/brainstorming session in order to match faces with the names, in an intensive 2-day kick off meeting during which we discussed all of the hardware and software for the vehicles. Now we are working in a borderless environment in an incredible exchange of information across the country. •Created an equipment list for all of the communications hardware to be used on the vehicle. Used this information to develop systems interconnect diagrams using Visio and a cabling interconnect list for all of the hardware.

What they like about Bae Systems:

Working for a company with an emphasis on social values and helping society is a clear and important priority for you - a critical factor in who you choose to work for. In contrast to other factors, you place an organization's reputation for fairness and concern for the community above most other aspects of the company. As you search for a new job opportunity, it is usually possible to find out if the company is involved in the community and/or if it is addressing problems and issues in society. Pay special attention to non-profit organizations and those specifically involved in social action. Moreover, speaking with current and former employees should enlighten you to perceptions of the fairness of the company's leaders and the treatment of employees.
