Pros

There are many to list, but to be brief, I would highlight my top 3: 1. People truly care! Whether it is with helping one another to get the job done, going above and beyond to support clients' needs or leaders enabling the growth and development of their employees! 2. As a growing multinational firm in 40+ countries, there are endless growth and development opportunities, whether at your home-base or elsewhere in the network. 3. Work-life balance - in my 10 years at CAE, I have never felt pressure to respond to emails outside of business hours or on weekends. Moreover, I have always been encouraged to take all my vacations and take rest when necessary.

Cons

Speed of Digital Transformation - though the company has taken many steps (financial, resource-wise, time-wise etc.) to accelerate this effort, but just like most digital transformations, this has taken longer than most colleagues have patience for. Regardless, I feel optimistic towards steps taken and can see the light at the end of the tunnel. In particular, I have been impressed with our adoption and application of Generative AI.

Pros

CAE offers the opportunity to work in a highly respected and technically advanced aviation environment. The work itself is meaningful, especially knowing the impact our services have on pilot safety and training outcomes. Many of the employees are knowledgeable, dedicated, and genuinely care about doing the right thing for clients. The Las Vegas team is collaborative, and there is a strong sense of teamwork when challenges arise. Leadership has supported improvements during periods of transition, including operational changes and facility moves, and there is exposure to multiple areas of the business that support my professional growth. CAE also provides solid benefits and stability as a global organization, which is reassuring in a fast-changing industry.

Cons

Like many large organizations, business decisions are made without the appropriate change management or the end user being considered. Resource constraints, such has limitations on hiring, particularly during periods of growth place additional strain on frontline teams. Communication and alignment between departments or Centers are inconsistent. Some operational issues would benefit from more proactive planning rather than reactive fixes. There are opportunities to further invest in tools, equipment, and infrastructure to better support employees and client.
