Pros
If you are a licensed technician, expectations are extraordinarily low since the company can hardly afford to lose any licensed techs. Great opportunity to learn, and develop skills as there are many different locations and systems to learn. You can learn a lot, potentially see some cool things, but you can find those at any other place that values their employees.
Cons
Nepotism-based advancement. "Raises," are often lower than inflation. Often fails to meet basic labor standards, like providing lunch or time for lunch during supported maintenance outages. Shouldn't happen at all, let alone as often as it did. Especially when middle management is primarily comprised of former Navy chiefs, I would have never in my life expected such consistent disregard and inconsistency with the meal time or labor laws. Outsources most opportunities for junior technicians to earn license hours. Process for earning a license and tracking hours for work are made unnecessarily convoluted by lacking clear direction, standards, and requirements. Little integrity in this company... they do more to look good rather than doing good work. Maintenance program standards are questionable and often inaccurate, but as long as metrics reflect timely completion, there is no accountability or enforcement of standards. This helps to develop an unsafe work environment. Complaints regarding work standards and environment are not taken seriously. This creates such a disappointing working environment. Poor implementation of new work order, supply systems, or other web/app based systems for work/tracking often created extra work, unnecessary stress, and always slowed down production. During my initial hiring, I was encouraged not to share or discuss my pay with other employees. After talking with some other employees, I realized that this was common practice and that frequently, employees at this account were paid fairly low compared to industry standards. During COVID, company was posting record profits, while at the same time, cutting a record number of employees. COVID policy and enforcement was inconsistent, at best. Tiptoeing requiring vaccines, but also not, and mismanaging sick, COVID+ employees led to many unnecessary exposures and preventable illnesses.
