Pros

Made 1 or 2 friends. OTHER THAN THAT WASTED MY YEARS OVER HERE

Cons

Worst company to work for. Unfortunately started my career with this company.Full of incompetent people who feel insecure with others hard work. I have seen some of the worst people in life in this office.HR has no ethics. They have no professionalism in dealing with employee. Have seen people(both full time and contract) being exploited. Managers have no back bone to support people under them. SUGGESTION to people planning to join safran or people planning to start career with safran-> Work a little harder , struggle a bit more and join a better company. This will help you in future. Suggestion comes from an employee who started career with safran bangalore.

Pros

flexible with schedule if in school or have family arrangements that need to be taken care of, WHEN* there is work the overtime is endless, able to move around the company fairly easy

Cons

pay i would say is average or could be below average, pay raises are minimal and slow, 401k match is decent (6%) and being a french company things can take forever to happen or receive parts because either waiting for approval from france or parts from france which can delay the process.
