Anyone work for L3? - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

L-3 has been acquiring companies very quickly. As a result, each division pretty much is the product of it's previous good/bad history. Most divisions have been with L-3 a short time, so there is not a definable L-3 corporate athmosphere that I know of.

I worked for L-3 Narda microwave. Very bureaucratic and political. CYA.

I just left recently. I don't know if it was corporate, or the local idiots making the decisions, but the place has gone to hell in a handbasket. Out of a company of 130 people, we've had 7 resignations and an early retirement in 1 1/2 months.

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling 2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps while tying up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail" when a new message arrived...
