Pros

high importance on leadership and people development important order backlog (approx 8 years), giving a sense of work protection for those looking for work security - similarly, quite hard to get fired from the company unless major mistake for people below VP positions very good staff councils in Toulouse, with lots of benefits great products, and most employees are proud of them

Cons

can be slow (united nations syndrom: strong stakeholder management needed as senior management decisions are not necessarily followed)

Pros

The work is very interesting. There aren't really other places you can do the same things in the space industry in the UK. The pay is OK, and there is quite a lot of opportunity for flexible working. The people I work with also make this a very good place to work.

Cons

The buildings and office accommodation in Stevenage are in a bit of a state. There are regular plumbing issues, the heating is often off when its cold and on when its hot and most of the office accommodation has no air conditioning.
