Leonardo reviews

Few chances to increase your career, firstly because of the huge size of the company. Research should have much more space in the organization

Lack of opportunity and trust in younger employees. Extremely poor graduate HR team who don't look after the needs of employees, both in terms of training and support. I was personally demoralised by an end of year presentation that was unfairly ripped apart by the graduate officer, when it was meant to be a progress presentation. A destructive hierarchical structure with pay grades determining how individuals are treated, which damages morale, opportunities for growth and new ideas. Overall an extremely old fashioned company with a lack of vision and no ability to change. Plus if you are on the business side of the company you will not get any over time regardless of the time you spend on a job, compared to engineering who receive over time and better flexi hours.
