BAE Systems, Inc. Employee Reviews

I really felt like I was in the right spot here at BAE when I first met a leader of ours. He is also a fellow veteran, and he was still wearing his jump wings. So I immediately, in having jump wings myself, kind of asked him about that and noticed that he was an Airborne veteran. I could relate to him, I belonged here.

Jason P., Subcontracts Manager

We get a lot of opportunities as early career workers to be at the forefront of leading different things. One of the first big presentations, I was very nervous. And my managers were like, you got this, you know what you're talking about. Getting to do it more and more over time made it easier.

AJ B., Systems Engineer

Mentorship is really key to what we do as a team every day, both one-on-one and in small groups, small teams. I personally have been and continue to be mentored by folks with more years of experience than I have. That's really important because at some point, they will have to pass the baton, and those you're going to pass the baton to have to be ready. It's up to all of us to make sure that they are.
