Are jobs in this industry on the rise? Are there any sub-sectors that are growing? Where are the jobs? Which places have the most unigraphics designer opportunities? |

There isn't any work in Melbourne worth speaking of in the automotive industry anyway, GM just put off about 100 contractors and there will probably be more. |

The primary users of unigraphics are the automotive industry, aerospace and the medical companies. As UG is somewhat expensive per seat, only large companies will be using it. |

Hi, Since, Siemens took over Unigraphics and now simply calling it, "NX", they no longer seem to be pushing this CAD application. However, they do seem to be pushing their Teamcenter or PDM systems. The trend now seems to be that some CAD applications that are 1/2 to 3/4 of the cost less than UG are shifting to SolidWorks or other less expensive CAD for small to mid size companies. |

Seems Siemens have their "hands" in all areas. They are big in the medical field also. |

Hi Group, Siemens is not much different than GE in that they also have or had their hands in a number of industries or sub-sectors. Now, GE has sold off many of its divisions and contemplating n selling off breaking up others As of now, GE uses UG NX throughout most of its divisions. However, since UG NX & Teamcenter are associated with Siemens, who also are competitors in a number of the same industries, GE has been seeking ways to phase off its (unofficial) partnership. Currently, GE is phasing out Teamcenter & going to Dassault’s PLM Enovia. Eventually, once or if they figure how to transfer UG NX CAD legacy files to another CAD application, such as SolidWorks, GE will also phase out NX when they can. |
