Pros

Flexi working and good benefits package.

Cons

All the senior managers have all worked there forever and it's an old boys club. If you're not part of the clique then your career will not progress. This makes the management and senior engineers very resistant to change and only want to carry on doing what they have always done.

Leonardo Response

Apologies for the late response to your concerns. We have noted your comments and fed them back into the Luton team. Leonardo is committed to demonstrating the social values expected of our current and future employees. In Luton 1 in 4 of our Heads of Engineering Programmes are women. The site has seen over 20 senior engineers join the team in the last 12 months with another 15+ engineers being promoted in the same timeframe. This does not change the fact that as an employee, that this was something you felt strong enough to raise. This being the case, should you wish to discuss this further, we can be reached on social.media@leonardo.com.
