Pros

Good systems, good team and stability

Cons

The company is too large, there are so many branches and BUs that makes approvals for projects, increases and promotions too slow and cumbersome. Also, there's a noticeable benefit or preference from corporate towards French based BUs vs US / Americas

Pros

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.

Cons

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.
