Pros

No many but has good canteen.

Cons

Since the massive redundancies during pandemic, moving electronics dept to France, the Pitstone site has been in steep downfall with constant staff turnover, management and senior staff collude to backstab and harass newer employees. Now that the Pitstone site has lost major new contract for Boeing new X66 plane, the site is planning for another major round of redundancies. There is now foreseeable future for this site as Safran is planning to move legacy projects to France with acquisition of Thales division making aircraft generators. Hence, the Pitstone site would be closed within next 5 years.

Not employee friendly

Pros

The last week of the year the company shuts down unless you work in the warehouse.

Cons

The warehouse is very toxic. Especially first shift and the upper management chooses to ignore it. They pay below the average, all the really good employees are leaving or left because they are fed up with poor pay and unsupportive upper management. Even most of the good managers have left. Unless you are looking for micro management, poor pay and a toxic enviroment, go else where.
