Pros

- Fully flexible working, can work from home and do as little work as possible - 'Heads of' & 'Lead' roles handed out to those who dont know how to do the job, so can easily bluff through progress - Decent pension compared to other local companies (but used to be so much better)

Cons

- Decent pay rises never happen - Promises of dev-ops opportunities and training but never happen - No private health care - Same old work, not using cloud

We appreciated your review. It is never nice to hear that a colleague is not having a positive experience with Leonardo. We will make your local HR team aware of your comments and hope that you feel that you can speak to them about concerns in the coming days.

Pros

There is not one pro I can think of.

Cons

The culture is extremely toxic and divisive. There is a clear preference shown toward Italian employees over U.S. employees, which creates an unfair and frustrating work environment. Communication is often unprofessional, with frequent yelling, finger-pointing, and disrespectful comments. Management has failed to establish clear roles and responsibilities, leading to constant confusion and conflict between employees. Engineering leadership appears heavily driven by favoritism and routinely treats employees with a lack of professionalism and respect.
