All the pros and cons

Anonymous employee

Pros

Job security, benefits in terms of healthcare and holiday leave, informal work environment and the opportunity to work internationally. The location was great, Florence Italy.

Cons

The cons related to working at Selex Comms are very much the same of most (if not all) government owned companies. This means difficulties to adapting to change, very limited career growth opportunities for "normal" employees - note that there is no job description, no annual review and no direct link between performance and growth opportunity. This can curb anyone's enthusiasm.

Pros

Easy to get to as sits just off of an arterial road, flexible working hours are great for getting stuff done at the end of the day.

Cons

Pretty much everything, the management team are useless, the pay is absolutely terrible and there was a slight hint of personal development, not much more.
