Pros

nothing at all. I should give 0 star , but the lowest rating is 1 here.

Cons

the manager will never increase your salary and the salary is even lower than the average salary in the local area. The company always asks you to be loyalty to company and forced you to study many ethical online courses. They lied and tried to show you a bright future but indeed no future and growth at all. I have talked with the local manager and she even said there is little growth path in this company, if you want to get promoted, do not stay here. Due to COv-19, there are more labors in the markets, and they can always find new and cheap employees. You can find there are some ladies and high lever department head left because the real working employees quit very soon after couple years upset experience here. There is no yearend bonus or 13-month salary for the base workers. However, the high level managers have. If you are a low-level worker. You will never get it unless you can get promoted. Every year this company hires some new hands and some old staff quit, year after year. The duty load is very heavy, as 12 hours shift duty, you will suffer a lot and cannot have any chance to sleep entire night. This is not a fairly trade job at all. Do not waste your time here!

Pros

CAE offers the opportunity to work in a highly respected and technically advanced aviation environment. The work itself is meaningful, especially knowing the impact our services have on pilot safety and training outcomes. Many of the employees are knowledgeable, dedicated, and genuinely care about doing the right thing for clients. The Las Vegas team is collaborative, and there is a strong sense of teamwork when challenges arise. Leadership has supported improvements during periods of transition, including operational changes and facility moves, and there is exposure to multiple areas of the business that support my professional growth. CAE also provides solid benefits and stability as a global organization, which is reassuring in a fast-changing industry.

Cons

Like many large organizations, business decisions are made without the appropriate change management or the end user being considered. Resource constraints, such has limitations on hiring, particularly during periods of growth place additional strain on frontline teams. Communication and alignment between departments or Centers are inconsistent. Some operational issues would benefit from more proactive planning rather than reactive fixes. There are opportunities to further invest in tools, equipment, and infrastructure to better support employees and client.
