Pros
MBDA really cares about their people and they want to make sure you are well-supported. This includes wanting to continuously develop their people. They are actively investing in infrastructure and expanding at present (Jan 2025). There are lots of opportunities to move up, diagonally, or sideways on the career ladder internally.
Cons
It's the defence industry, so there an interesting duality of the cutting-edge and yet risk aversion. The company wants to go fast, but also can't because of the processes that we are required to adhere to. Sometimes, tools are a bit dated. The multi-national structure hinders things I feel, because certain decisions have to be agreed across the five national companies, which is hard to do sometimes.
