Business Outlook

Pros

Large workforce, plenty of opportunities for training & development. Broadly pleasant community. Decent ancillary benefits packages (pension / health etc.). Plenty of informal opportunities & projects to get involved in. Decent development opportunities from graduate to mid-senior positions, since turnaround is moderate. Departmental budgets are reasonable so it's unusual to have purchasing requests outright rejected for non-capital projects.

Cons

Pay is mediocre given the breadth of responsibility of many of the mid-senior roles, IT systems and a lot of projects are vastly under-resourced. There are a lot of global 'top-down' influences on local processes which slow down local working practices a lot. Opportunities to penetrate into more senior management positions are limited as many posts are occupied by figures with >20years experience in the sector who have no intention of moving on. As part of the aerospace supply chain, the pace of change in working practices is often glacial & many processes suffer from high degrees of bureaucracy.

Business Outlook

Pros

Made some good friends but had an long career progression timeline for this role for me. Stable job with some benefits but not extremely competitive when compared with other opportunities in/around Cambridge. Hopefully this has improved in time. Good training opportunities on variety of tools and equipment

Cons

Old site which age is starting to show. Hopefully some of the new buildings planned improve this work environment
