Pros

Interesting job for a scientist with real data and self funded research topics. A lot of social perks: vacation, holidays funding...

Cons

Big corporation so the decision process is quite slow. Collaboration between Thales subsidiaries is far from being optimal. Mobility between subsidiaries is also difficult to achieve.

Pros

Firstly, I think that at Thales, projects are really interesting. Secondary, employees are very well paid. Finally, I can say that there is a lot of advantages when you work at Thales.

Cons

Thales group for exciting and challenging opportunity in the engineering, science and technology fields. Every project is a new challenge because projects are all different..

Pros

Huge group with enormous potential power and expertise (if you can leverage it). Career opportunities, good mentorship. High level information technology consulting compared to market (system engineering, agile software development, etc.). High level recruitment, technical skills are above average. High

Cons

Juniors are offered salaries well over the market, but then salary evolution is more based on seniorship than on skills and performances. After few years, salaries are medium (compared to market). Extremely low bonus compared to market. Rating surely depends highly on the service you work.
