Pros
if you like flying things this is a great company to enter the aerospace & defence industry. It's very big, part of the italian industrial group Finmeccanica, which employs more than 70.000 people. There are opportunities to make experience in different areas and for lots of travelling if you are in sales, marketing, support or training. Most of the people are engineers, so if you come from a background different from engineering or business, you won't have much chances either to get a job or to change function when in. Best culture is in the British branch in yeovil, they run lots of programmes for students, undergrads and graduates. Check out the careers section on the website.
Cons
Big company with an italian management means just this: bureaucratic, slow, no clear vision, poor ethic. If you like fast-paced industries and companies, forget about this one. Moreover, know that Finmeccanica is a state-owned company where the italian government owns the 30%..
