Pros

Pay and benifits are great compared to the majority of aviation mechanic jobs out there. Interesting system and capabilities. Coworkers

Cons

As far as UAV companies go, they pay on the low end, expect more out of you and wonder why you would want to have a weekend off after coming home from a 6 month overseas trip. There is no gaurantee as to the amount of money you will make in a given year, I will bring in almost 40k less than i did last year. Management is horrible, most of the higher ups are all about running everyone else over to make them selves look that much better in the managements eyes, training takes a back seat to trying to make themselves look like golden children. Do NOT expect respect from these people

Pros

9/80 work schedule. Benefits are decent. One of the few comapnies that offer a pension in addition to 401k.

Cons

Too many management layers. Promotions seem to be based on who you know, and if you fit into the right "clique". Some promotions are being given to managers with no experience in the function. Executuve leadership appears out of touch with their employees. Example - Chaotic games have been played the last 3 years with remote and hybrid work policies.
