Pros

Lots of travel for most of the positions, which helps to know other plants, and get to see different places in the world Very good work-life balance, I never felt overworked at Bombardier Management cares about employees, they even do frequent offsites and take into consideration people's opinion, the vice president of my group was a very down to earth person

Cons

Not the best benefits compared to other companies, but salary is not bad Not many opportunities of advancement outside Montreal, due to structure, most of the functions are in Montreal, while other locations are mainly operations or factories

Pros

Bombardier offers great name recognition and is involved on a global scale. There are many areas within which one may explore but unless you have higher form of education, there's a very real glass ceiling that's easily detectable.

Cons

Difficult to be promoted due to the number of employees in each department and beaurocracy. The pay is not great and they're micro managers.
