A frustrating time due to a company fixation with irrelevant metrics whilst important issues areignored.

Principal mechanical engineer

Business Outlook

Pros

A relatively stable work environment whcih appears to have escaped the brunt of the economic slump. Recognised training schemes to enable Engineering staff to attain chartered status.

Cons

Speaking as an Engineer, Selex Galileo has adopted an approach which means that the solution to all problems is to use a technique of micro-management. Rather than reporting to single individuals you find yourself being asked the same questions by two or three different individuals throughout the day. When in reality the answer is from an engineering perspective we are simply under resourced.
