BAE Systems Software Developer reviews

Really have to manage upwards. Its full of trained engineers who spin propellers by themselves (can't communicate) and don't realise that the biggest risk to a project is poor colleague communications

I have held many jobs, but this is the one company that I would urge all those considering to stay away. It is incredibly difficult to build a career here, as the company often change roles at will and with no notice. Many people find that the roles they applied for don’t materialise, are not truthful, or just don’t last for longer than a few weeks before the company decide to impose a new career. Graduates and trainees seem to have an especially bad deal here. As one former colleague put it in a company forum: ‘it feels like we are on a sinking ship.’
