During the years of Soviet ownership, the working conditions and social welfare of the factory workers improved greatly. Óbuda Shipyard had its own cultural and sports life, its own newspaper and choir. The number of workers gradually increased (from the initial 800 to 3,000), a permanent medical clinic operated in the main building, a factory kitchen was established, and a new dining room was built, which was also used as a cultural hall.
The factory purchased, among other things, the former Törley villa in Balatonföldvár, which was used as one of the company resorts. The state party carried out increasingly greater propaganda in the factory, and this had a significant impact on the workers and the factory atmosphere.
Two six-story apartment buildings with a total of 56 apartments were built for the factory workers in today’s Pacsirtamező Street.
