Pros

If your an intern or a recent engineering college graduate, this is a good company to get your career started.

Cons

Bad economic times have made management very callous and the employment culture cutthroat and very political. Benefits package has been effectively gutted. Company is not family friendly. Performance Management Process is used to ambush employees that management does not like regardless of performance. Very little if any advancement possibilities. Management does not value experienced professionals but does want cheap interns, recent college graduates, and foreign workers.

Pros

The most chill aviation job I have ever worked at. No regular near weekly audits , no micro management from supervisors. No incompetent tool crib attendant to deal with. All smaller tools like torque wrenches, safety cable guns, mega ohm meters, etc are in a vending machine style tool bin manager. QA is very knowledgeable and extremely fast when placing a call with them for an inspection, or witnessing torque or anything. I've never had to wait more than 10 mins, even when they are short handed a person. As far as the whole parts procurement dept and the parts runners go they seem pretty legit as well. Doesn't matter if I need a hyd pump, a press switch or just a bag of screws. If I don't get the part that day within a few mins to hours, its there the next day.

Cons

The only thing I can really nitpick is that the factory and the service center hangers have A/C. But not where im at ☹️
