    Pros and cons of working at BAE Systems AU

    Pros

    • Interesting projects, supportive leadership, great focus on training and self-improvement.

    • My team is very capable and willing to help.

    • The breadth of experiences I get to have and contribute to - no photocopying and fetching coffee here!

    • Very good industry training related to work solving real-world problems - the opportunity to work on significant platforms/systems/projects for Defence

    • Meaningful, challenging and exciting work.

    Cons

      • A little bureaucratic at times, things take a while to happen.

      • Not much naval architectural work, considering I applied for the graduate naval architect position

      • The company is very big and has many different departments spread over many buildings/sites so understanding the business is difficult.

      • Whilst position is secure, work taskings / scope of role can be flexible - whilst this provides wider opportunities, often re-settling into a new/additional role/responsibility can be a challenge at times

      • Not too many travel opportunities
