Pros
None, low pay, and horrible, outdated benefits.
Cons
AEEC feels like a company in slow collapse. Management is messy, reactive, and clearly not aligned. The CEO did not seem to understand his own business development operation and mostly relied on buzzwords and stale past performance talking points in meetings instead of showing real leadership. The company seems to be held together by a very small number of people, with operations heavily dependent on one person out of state. I was hired to do one job and quickly got pushed into unrelated production partnership work I was not hired for and had little background in. The WOSB setup also raised concerns for me. Based on what I observed, the CEO’s wife was listed in that role but was not visibly involved in operations and appeared to serve mainly as the signatory. The bigger picture is a company that seems to have shrunk significantly and is now coasting while contracts expire. It did not feel stable, strategic, or well led.
