      Great company, great culture, fun work

      Structural engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      -Very interesting work. -Can be hands on if you choose. -Great coworkers and company culture. -Good mentoring from experienced engineers. -Unlimited sick leave. -Possibility to bank time is great.

      Cons

      -HR often don't respond to emails (overworked). -HR and engineers union are often in conflict. -Having a union representing engineers can be a double edged sword. Salary brackets are clearly defined by the union so not much wiggle room for negociation of salary. -Very little vacation (2 weeks a year).

      Excellent company

      Senior program manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      MDA's management is friendly and encourages the employees. The overall atmosphere among the employees is collaborative. The product is very interesting and the customers are professionals.

      Cons

      The company has been around for a long time so the processes have not been optimized. The salary is not competitive with the industry based on the level of complexity of the products being produced.

      Strong growth and stability

      Human resources
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Strong growth and a large back-order of business. Stable industry and strong job security. If in one of the unions, very strong member pension plans (RRSP as well), and good benefits for all. (Union or non-union) Potential for growth Helping to build SPACE products is very cool

      Cons

      Some area's of the business have tight salary scales, but if you are passionate about SPACE, salary is secondary. Still good salaries for the industry. (Government contractor)
