Pros

Good people to work with and a great place to build experience at the start of your career.

Cons

Management is awful, they truly care nothing about their employees and that's at EVERY level from the leads up to the CEO. There are a few bright spots and exceptions to that rule but sadly there aren't enough to outweigh the toxic leadership. Pay is well below the industry average as well. Younger, less experienced mechanics make just as much if not more than veteran mechanics with years of experience.

Pros

It was a great company to work for.

Cons

There was some compliance issues that needed to be addressed. Some of the old mechanics were used to doing things the way they "had always done them" same thing with training and other managers rather than reading the manuals so it led to customer issues. It could have definitely been avoided. AAR Corp took over and just laid off all the good people who were trying to make positive changes rather than interviewing anyone. So now they are stuck with all the ones that are in that "lets keep doing it the way we have always done it mindset". If they dont sell it or break it down for parts - I will be surprised.
