Cobham Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"Cobham was a great company in that a design engineer could see a project from initial design to production hand-off. For someone who enjoys the hands-on aspect of RF engineering, it was a great place to work."

"I enjoyed the fact that as an RF Engineer I had responsibility for not only the design aspect, but also the testing/troubleshooting portion of the project."

"I liked the fact that I not only got to do the design, but also the hands-on bench testing as well."

"What I liked most about Cobham was the fact that as engineers we get the opportunity to bench test our designed prototypes, instead of merely handing the design off to someone else."

"Cobham is an established well respected company. I would recommend anyone interested in the Aerospace industry to apply. The management is professional and fair in employee support."

"Management constantly shifts priorities in all functions of the business. Most functional groups are critically understaffed."

"Great company to work for."

"Good company to work for. fast paced work style"

"I've worked for this company for more than 3 years. Overall, the company stress on quality. There is no turnover of staff at least in my department but the department head changed four times over this period."

"I like this company, but I think I need to move on in my career."

"I found that the company changes direction often without the best communication"

"Cobham was a strong company with good vision. I was fortunate to be with this organization for a year and six months. During that time, I was a part of really exciting projects and learned quite a bit that will enable me to be successful in my next role."

"Great work-life balance at this company!"

"the average engineer at the davenport site stays for about 3 years. They either leave because of the unchallenging work and lack of a career path or are fired because they are unhappy. In the meantime you will be lucky if you don't catch cancer. Lots of employees have died of cancer at this work site because of the toxic chemicals used in the aerospace manufacturing process."

"Just started and these guys are trying to sell stuff to Boeing, one of the worst run companies in the world. They are having a tough time understanding the Boeing corporate culture. They are learning, but it isn't easy. I am a contractor, and there is a well defined "us and them" climate between directs and contractors. The directs hate us, for whatever reason. I get over the angst every payday. Personnel is one of the worst groups I have ever seen. They define the terms arrogant and rude. They also force contractors to work unpaid hours, which is going to backfire on them sooner or later."
