Pros

- Nice Cafeteria - Friendly and supportive people - Usage of new tools - Bike friendliness - Huge parking area - Location: as an aerospace company it is good to see the airplanes so closely - Free shuttle service in the afternoon back to Du College metro - It is a place to improve skills, in the recent years the initiative is to use more modern tools
