I'm glad they're taking this seriously

I kinda wish they'd take it "very seriously". Corporate communications generally take issues "very seriously". The fact that they're only taking it "seriously" makes me wonder if they're really taking it seriously or not.

Great first impression from a technical company

Oh, these are defense contractors, that explains a lot about this non-statement.

I had thought the L3 was from Level 3 Communications and Harris, but its actually L3 Technologies which seems to be a holding company for defense contractors.

I guess it’s technically a statement, even though it says nothing.

I mean they could have taken it humorously I guess.

personal perspective- L3X has repeatedly demonstrated a corporate culture of accountability allergy. spiderman meme was made for L3. I think it goes up and down the chain

This is standard practice for basically all defense contractors. I don't think there's hardly any of them that strive for excellence, just for next year's contract.

Very surprised because I know several fellow alumni that went on to do extremely technical low level "frontier level" work there. Due to the secret nature of their operations, what they literally do day to day is an angle I don't know much about so maybe its all nonsense but I don't get that feeling.
