Pros

flexible hours, interesting work, great benefits

Cons

You can easily get pigeon-holed in the one task you do. people are either super technical with no business acumen whatsoever, or managers with very little to no technical knowledge. However, if you can mix both skills you become a star employee! Processes take ages to complete

Business Outlook

Pros

Great benefits compared to other industries, average for an aerospace company. Minimal work required, cushy job, great work-life balance. Little to no pressure.

Cons

Little to no accountability on upper management, mid-management, first-line management or anyone else for that matter. Employee's responsibilities are compartmentalized to such an extent that every department operates in a silo and is disconnected and apathetic to the needs of the rest of the organization. Management is disconnected from what their employees actually do and their employee's true abilities. Ideas for improving the workplace fall on deaf ears. Bureaucracy plagues every department, every process, and every decision. Decisions are made slowly if ever made at all. Businesses are slow to react and incapable of reacting responsively to just every facet of the business world.
