Pros

Work-life balance is comparatively okay only because workload is low, not because of good processes.

Cons

No proper or meaningful work assigned. Most of the time, the work is not related to the role you’re hired for. Employees are hired for one role and then randomly deployed to completely different work/projects. Too much micromanagement, even for small tasks, which affects productivity and morale. Mandatory 9 hours office presence for 3 days a week is very exhausting and unnecessary. 50 km radius work-from-office policy is impractical and ignores employee convenience. No proper applications or systems for resignation or exit process, making it stressful and unclear. Poor planning and lack of transparency from management.

Merci d’avoir partagé votre avis. Nous sommes ravis que vous appréciez la variété de nos projets, la qualité des équipes, le soutien du CSE ainsi que la proximité de Paris. Nous avons conscience que le rythme de travail peut parfois être exigeant et que les opportunités d’évolution ne correspondent pas toujours aux attentes de chacun. Chez Safran, nous veillons à favoriser l’épanouissement professionnel de nos collaborateurs et collaboratrices grâce à des actions dédiées à la mobilité interne, à la formation continue et à l’innovation.
