Pros

Rewarding career. Structured work environment. Good pay and benefits. Most coworkers were interesting and fun to be around. Great careers and good work facilities.

Cons

Training was extremely difficult (I did not pass). Testing was not very forgiving and scoring seemed harsh. FAA is unforgiving with testing and does not give any second chances.
