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
