Pros

The facility is located in the DFW area.

Cons

This company uses a lot of contractors and cheap labor out of Mexico. They will not hesitate of ship your job out the country if Boeing approves the transfer and they can save them a few labor dollars. The spend managed by the procurement team in Denton is small. The manager that is responsible for Procurement at the Denton facility is a poor leader. The person is unprofessional and the person thinks he knows more than he does. The sad part is that the individual has been employed with Safran for over 10 years. When an organization has a poor leader in place for along time that should tell you a lot about the organization.
