Great People - Great Technology - Great Heritage - Not so great Directors & Politics wins - Engineering Manager Safran Employee Review

People are treated very well at Safran. They might not be the highest paying Aerospace company in the USA, but they have great benefits, management, and people. And still, the pay is usually competitive.

The headquarters are in France and therefore you need to be open to a different culture. Additionally, French and English are used sometimes in communications.

Many learning opportunities for troubleshooting different types of avian generator control units. Opportunities to work with a variety of engineering departments including production, test, quality, and industrialization. Occasional overtime opportunities.

High stress due to production deadlines, especially at the end of month. Miscommunications due to constant reprioritizing of needs. Difficult to move from short term (1 year+ only) contracts to full time positions.
