Pros

I find it very hard to find any positives, negative experiences make you stronger?!

Cons

Terrible management team, no trust or empowerment, expected to work 7 days a week as there’s no control or the correct level of expertise within the business. UTC have deskilled the work force acquiring Goodrich in 2012. The HR department is one of the worst departments I’ve come across in all of my professional career, no support, no professionalism and purely bring in friends of theirs over the correct people who are qualified for the positions. Management team lie continually and have no integrity. Above all you’d think in Aerospace quality should be paramount, unfortunately I found it to be totally the opposite, all management (from top to bottom) were interest in were sales and EBIT (profit). Really think about joining this company if you’re a qualified professional.

Good people - slow business

Pros

- Has some very talented engineers, most of whom keep the business competitive. - Working conditions are good and the people are friendly - Facilities are great and remote work is an option - Located in a great area of the UK - Opportunities to travel to interesting places

Cons

- Large, slow and mostly uninteresting projects, with an extreme amount of time put in to admin where it should and could be spent on engineering a better product. - The interesting projects are mostly too small to warrant larger teams, and these projects are always given to the same people. - No opportunity for progression - A severe lack of interest or understanding from immediate and upper management as to who brings value to projects, and who doesn’t. - Promotions are seemingly given based on a mixture of time served and personal relationships, rather than merit or experience. - Wages are extremely uncompetitive based on market rates
