lots of interesting work
Application support and cybersecurity tasks.
Work throughout the day includes admin and checking e-mails. Then the work goes into technical thinking and problem solving along with modelling work. The responsibilities involve time management and team meetings to check on the work I have been doing.

Pros and cons of working at BAE Systems Australia
Pros
The support from mentors and coworkers has been amazing.
The culture is great. Where contractually allowed, people are able to work from home as much as they want.
The best thing about working for my company is the diversity of the work we complete.
There are plenty of opportunities for growth, development, and the chance to stand out and prove yourself by innovating new processes or techniques.
The 9-day fortnight is the best thing ever.
Cons
The graduate salary is not competitive when compared with other salaries for graduate engineers in defence.
Due to the organisation being so large it can be hard to see the results of your work as it may be passed on to a different department once a particular segment is completed and you may not get to see the final results of your work.
The nature of defence (NDAs, security classification, etc) makes learning about other things happening within the business difficult. It's still possible to learn by asking around, but the need to know makes it very difficult.
If you don't get into a rotational graduate stream, your opportunities for exposure to different parts of the company are limited.
Everything moves at a snail's pace. Too much admin work.
