Q. Why should I work for a defense company?
A. In a work where our industry news is dominated by a declining defense budget and
megamergers,
Marconi North America doubled in size during the last year becoming the ninth largest
defense company
in the United States. We devised a successful, now proven framework for growth, backed by
a strong
board, management, and employee team. This strategy focuses on continued U.S. Department
of Defense
(DOD) business, as well as a plan to win programs in new nondefense areas and diversify
our technologies
for customers who have come to know and depend on our outstanding performance. Our
approach also
targets the acquisition of businesses which complement our business areas or bring
important new
capabilities to the company.
This performance is accomplished despite a declining defense budget. Our work is
concentrated in areas
which are among today’s top DOD priorities – to enhance operational readiness
and to upgrade and
extend the useful lives of existing high- priority systems and platforms. The fastest
growing business area
of Marconi North America – information technology – is funded primarily by a
variety of defense and
nondefense government agencies.
