Pros

This first 5 years at MBDA passed so quickly, starting during Covid was not ideal but the communication systems worked as well as full time face to face meetings with the laptop and screens provided making working from home very comfortable and the on boarding process easy. Working relationships quickly developed over Skype and the availability of on line training eased development and once Covid was over attendance on site helped to develop working relationships and gave the opportunity for hands on with the products. Even at a distance, MBDA provides all the support needed and requested with personal care and safety their highest priority. I am looking forward to the next ‘5’ years at MBDA and strongly endorse a statement from a very wise friend “If you are doing something you really enjoy you will never work for a living” which sums up my 5 years here.

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.
