      Pros and Cons of Howmet

      Business outlook

      Pros

      You can work 8 to 4 with 2 coffee breaks and a lanch break. There is a lot of independence in how you do your job and no one checks what are you doing.

      Cons

      People skills of senior management are close to none. The company does not care about recruting right people, therefore level of overall performance is very poor. There is no training scheme for employees.

      Business outlook

      Pros

      Can get a good exposure to manufacturing processes as a graduate. Frequent communication between different parts of the company.

      Cons

      Huge employee turn over rate combined with a lack of training opportunities make personal development rather difficult. Graduate scheme lacks structure.
