Vantaggi

- Treat staff well, and trying to go for a family vibe. - Willing to spend time to properly train up junior staff. - Management always listened to junior engineers. - Had semi-frequent company meetups, where staff could see colleagues that work with different clients and on different projects.

Svantaggi

- Low pay in comparison to some of their competitors. - Since most of their work is contracted, you are sometimes more beholden to the customer company and their culture (especially if you are on-site). While this is of course not Critical's fault, I do think more effort could have been made to make those employees still feel part of the company.

Vantaggi

Great environment, projects that make a difference to the world (no call centre crappy software being developed here): trains, planes, aerospace, space, banking, smart meters, etc.. Parts of Exomars SW were made here. Same for Solar Orbiter and 20+ space missions. This is about changing the world, for the better, while staying in Portugal (or UK, or Germany, or anywhere that suits you - remote is the new norm). Human resources are valued. Several process improvement initiatives are NOT related to the core technical standards and/or technologies but to People and sustainability (Investors in People, B-Corps). One of the few CMMI-L5 companies in the world (~1000), which rates the capability maturity level of the organization.

Svantaggi

Got to know what is involved in working for safety-critical projects and domains. Not a company developing pretty much simple web software. Coding is only one of the many tasks to be performed before release. If you don't care about quality (doing things right, processes and doing the right thing and your business is the salary at the end of the month), go somewhere else.
