Cons

Management are in over their heads. Little to no ability to work off the book. Dangle wfh and flexible working but thats nonsense. Managers are clearly part of boys club mentality. People placed in jobs who shouldnt be

Pros

Leonardo Tucson has profitable but difficult to build product. A good starter job for a grad to pad their resume then move on to a good job with better pay, bonuses, and advancement, none of which are present at this place.

Cons

Management has been there too long. They are entrenched, unmotivated and just cruising to retirement. You'd think it's a family business, a failing one at that. Corporate should can them all and bring in fresh talent. If joining Leonardo Tucson you think you'll make a difference, dream on. Even if you do good you won't be rewarded.

Pros

None don’t do it to yourself

Cons

The nepotism is intense here. If you are not Italian or speak Italian you won’t get promoted.
