      Every engineering stereotype applies

      Lead stress engineer

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      You get to work on aircraft.

      Cons

      Everything else. Bias P&D process that creates a massive pay gap, the general statics are warped by the large numbers of men in manufacturing. Complex inefficient policies and procedures. New ideas judged by popularity rather than cost improvements or engineering criteria. It's 100% who you know not what you know.

      Truth

      Engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The company has since renamed itself from American Eurocpoter to Airbus Helicopters, Inc. - A part of Airbus Group. ***** Medical Insurance was great. That was about it. FYI: -Your "base" salary will be lowered if you decide to purchase an extra week of vacation -Annual bonus at end of year -Merit raises here are higher than other companies in same industry

      Cons

      -Low pay, less vacation/personal time vs other companies in same industry. -90% of the people here were hard to work with, disrespectful, inexperienced, and worthless. Nobody has that technical capability or knowledge, especially of the products they build everyday. -If the company pushes strongly for healthier lives, then ban smoking on the premises. -A lot of other unprofessional activities that shall not be spoken about... -Bottom line - If you are young out of college, I highly recommend going to other companies. The experience you gain here (or lack thereof) will not get you anywhere and will not prepare you for opportunities elsewhere.

      Process and Bureaucracy dominate

      Graduate engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Likeable and skilled co-workers. Extremely flexible working hours (flexi-time). Low pressure.

      Cons

      Zero R&D budget, which means little prospect of contributing to new products or development. Often insufficient work load. Project code systems means employees are essentially prohibited from (for example) working on product improvements/R&D etc when workload is low. Fairly poor pay.
