Pros

- Fast recruitment process, easy to engage with the HR team and get updates - Friendly environment, the team is very welcoming and helpful - Treated with respect and like an adult - A lot of different and interesting projects to work on - Stevenage site is really nice - Dynamic working is great, helps with the work/life balance Overall loving the experience and enjoying the role.

Cons

- Some processes are complicated, unclear or unnecessarily lengthy as a new starter. For example getting a lab coat which is required for the role takes over a month... - Lab space is inadequte and isn't managed properly - Projects can be slow with very long timelines - Lower pay compared to the industry, little pay improvement with progression, benefits are okay

Pros

An international company that gives you amazing opportunities for international exposure (either short or long term secondment in France, UK, Italy or Germany). MBDA regroups the best of each country’s culture to make those national differences a strength developing a strong Cultural Intelligence (CQ). Huge sense of belonging working in an innovative environment in order to develop, produce and deliver cutting edge technologies within our products for our nationals and export customers. Fantastic work life balance opportunities with hybrid working pattern.

Cons

Due to the nature of our products (Defence) it might sometimes be difficult or inappropriate sharing our day to day job achievements or successes outside the company.
