Pros

Stable job. You will literally have to mess up very, very badly to loose your job.

Cons

Spineless management, no motivation to innovate, Something is only a problem if it impacts schedule, completely disinterested in individual's professional development, archaic work policies, completely run (and being ruined) by the local southern gentlemen and if you are not one of them, too bad for you; Knowledge is power and the powers to be hold on to their knowledge and are never willing to share and mentor.

Big corporate politics at times. Some people just love to point fingers. Rules that are very excessive due to incompetence, instead of just firing morons.

Pros

Rather decent front loaded time off. 4 day work weeks. A pretty decent off shift incentive.

Cons

Management does not care about their people. They are so far removed from what’s going on on the floor and too focused on passing the buck to someone else for their screw ups. People are placed in positions they should not be in simply because they know someone or they kiss up to someone. The people on the floor have very little fixed wing experience yet act as if they know everything. The only path they create for people to move up is A&P and even then they just want you to stay a mechanic. They neglect to realize that people stay with a company for the culture as well as leave because of it.
