Thanks for taking the time to post your comments. As we all know, we have a strong focus on transformation and it is disappointing to read that you do not feel it is having the impact we want. I really hope that, as a senior member of our team, you are able to influence this and feedback your thoughts to drive improvement. Good luck with your future transformation changes.

Pros

Great benefits, flexible working hours, great technology, chill people. After 9 years in the aerospace industry, this has easily been my favorite job. A lot less "mean nerd" types and way more down to earth people than I was used to.

Cons

Large organization, sometimes overly bureaucratic and can be slow to move. Management is changing however; they're getting more technical people in higher level roles, and things are improving.
