Pros

No pros so far - the merger is still being talked about some 6 months in

Cons

big company, much talk and no action. Awaiting for the merger to fully take place and then will see what happens

Leonardo Response

As you indicate, the organization is going through much change which can be unsettling, so thank you for your advice on what we still need to be mindful of.

Good for the young but don't stay there!

Principal systems engineer

Business Outlook

Pros

Good Company for young people wanting to gain experience. Multi-site large company provides opportunities to travel and explore a wide range of job types and disciplines.

Cons

The Company does not value long-term highly skilled staff. It has a culture of purging older staff and protecting graduates and new starters when over- recruiting for the prevailing workload. Engineers can suffer poor engineering management who are too powerful and can easily wreck hard working staff's career prospects. It is recommended not to stay on to older age.

Leonardo Response

Thank you for your review and advice. Your observation on the prevailing culture is not an environment we want to cultivate so thank you for your advice on what we can do to improve things.
