Challenging work - Balance between Existing Design and Creativity
Verbesserungsvorschläge
See the comments above.
Arbeitsatmosphäre
A lot of direct communications and working together between colleagues. Toxic colleagues were handled well and conflicts were managed properly.
Work-Life-Balance
Due to the underestimation of the effort required to adapt and recertify an aircraft with new powerplant, most teams are underresourced and fully loaded. Proactive engineers and managers work overtime to meet deadlines or find solutions to critical items, although it is "discouraged".
Karriere/Weiterbildung
There are limited trainings for moving up the carrier. Many training are limited to people within their workscope. so unless your job is meant to do managment and CVE roles, you dont get the respective training.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
Most colleagues are very supportive in integration activities. But there are colleagues coming from other OEMs that work predominantly in defined and matured processes and design framework, that are reluctant to think outside the box, change their ways of working, and go to the fundamentals. "It is done this way, therefore it must be done like that"
Umgang mit älteren Kollegen
Older and more experienced Colleagues are often given more opportunities and benefit of doubts, regardless if they are really competent.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
Many leading positions are open to critics and suggestions. Some are more stubborn that the others though.
Arbeitsbedingungen
Work is often very challenging and this can be both good or bad. Stressful for people looking for simply working 8-5 and strive for work-life balance, adrenaline rush for enthusiasts.
Kommunikation
Directly dialing up colleagues is encouraged. One is encouraged escalate their concerns and conflicts to their managers and even higher-ups
Gehalt/Benefits
Talking to colleagues I understood that this company pays well. However, there are no extra benefits such compensations for overtime, rebate for car leasings, Chrismas money etc. In some cases, the pay is not reflecting competence and contributions. Some "seemingly important" positions are paid extremely high to work 99.9% from elsewhere and only do minimal work.
Gleichberechtigung
This company is VERY international. Everyone has the same voice regardless.
Interessante Aufgaben
Very interesting work. This is a rare opportunity to learn designing and building an aircraft almost from the ground up. Relearning the why and how certain systems are built the way they are.
