Pros

You get to experience flight simulators and insight to flight training.

Cons

No career opportunities for those who are genuinely capable and are career driven. Management at CAE Oxford hire individuals who are either young and no aviation experience or management who will stick around for years who are not "competent" with "modern tech" this resulting you getting paid less and doing more work as your "Manager" has instructed you to do this( because they can't) and overall there is no recognition of your hard work. HR and Senior management do gossip,lie and backstab each other and are very unprofessional on social media. Favouritism is highly flammable in CAE Oxford. They seem to have a very "bullish" and a good cop bad cop game going on! Staff in one particular area are unprofessional and very rude to students resulting students having to accept what they are saying. The staff should be going the extra mile as these are prestigious customers who deserve more. They are full of empty promises so if your someone who gets their hopes up (forget it). Internally very evident of being disjointed. When you resign don't expect an exit interview as Management won't give you one, personally I think they are scared to present this when being audited to why there is a huge turnover in staff. The OAA management would know they would be under the limelight. To protect themselves you are not given a voice to express your reasons to leave thus resulting history repeating!

Pros

CAE has been an incredibly supportive place to build a career. Leaders genuinely invest in your development, and there’s a strong culture of learning, collaboration, and trust. I’ve always felt empowered to bring ideas forward and take on new challenges. The company cares about its people, provides flexibility when it matters, and creates an environment where you can grow personally and professionally. Proud to be part of this organization.

Cons

The company is evolving fast, which is good—but change can be emotionally challenging for teams navigating uncertainty.
