Pros

If you like to perform a Phd or to learn a lot about a deep technical field (Power electronics), it's a good place to be (but not really the best) +good compensation thanks to the SAFRAN support +good restaurant +various projects as this is a quite small company within the SAFRAN group

Cons

- a lot of "ENSEM" engineering guys coming from this school. It creates a weird ambiance in the team especially if you are not coming from these "selected school" -Poor management and terrible communication within the team (some guys should only work in a lab because they cannot share their knowledge or communicate respectfully with peoples) - Poor process and/or not mature enough with lack of leadership

Pros

People are treated very well at Safran. They might not be the highest paying Aerospace company in the USA, but they have great benefits, management, and people. And still, the pay is usually competitive.

Cons

The headquarters are in France and therefore you need to be open to a different culture. Additionally, French and English are used sometimes in communications.

Many learning opportunities for troubleshooting different types of avian generator control units. Opportunities to work with a variety of engineering departments including production, test, quality, and industrialization. Occasional overtime opportunities.

Cons

High stress due to production deadlines, especially at the end of month. Miscommunications due to constant reprioritizing of needs. Difficult to move from short term (1 year+ only) contracts to full time positions.
