Pros

Dynamic Working has transformed the work life balance within MBDA, having the freedom to attend not just medical appointments but other important activities has meant that MBDA has become an attractive employer. Being a Gold Award owner on the Employee Recognition Scheme ran as part of the Armed Forces Covenant, means that I get 2 weeks leave to attend Reserve/Army cadet activities, this means that I can continue to enhance my skills and making a huge difference to the younger members of the local community as an Adult Volunteer with the Army Cadets. MBDA also has a number of community groups that are good to be involved in, one of these is the Armed Forces Community, currently the largest community within MBDA. Currently we are looking at how we can improve our Ex-Forces recruitment strategy so that we don't miss out on some of the fantastic talent that is leaving our Armed Forces. Recognition is another key aspect of MBDA life, both internal and external recognition is outstanding within the business. Not just my experience as a recent nominee in the Ex-Forces in Business Awards, but also the range of awards that are picked up by our apprentice community.

Cons

There are currently none that I can think of.

Pros

An international company that gives you amazing opportunities for international exposure (either short or long term secondment in France, UK, Italy or Germany). MBDA regroups the best of each country’s culture to make those national differences a strength developing a strong Cultural Intelligence (CQ). Huge sense of belonging working in an innovative environment in order to develop, produce and deliver cutting edge technologies within our products for our nationals and export customers. Fantastic work life balance opportunities with hybrid working pattern.

Cons

Due to the nature of our products (Defence) it might sometimes be difficult or inappropriate sharing our day to day job achievements or successes outside the company.
