Laid back but unclear job instructions make it tough for new people.

Pros

Good place to learn basics of production. If you're either inexperienced or returning to the field after a hiatus it's a good place to get back into shape without worry of getting fired. Basically, you have to do something monumentally stupid to get fired. Wages are average for the are but the health care has always been good. If you want to work forty, work forty, if you want OT, it's there.

Cons

Job cards, which you work from, can be very confusing and unclear. Most of knowledge is tribal and can take time to adjust to. Things are often done quickly to get the job done, rather than do it right the first time. There's almost no accountability whatsoever.

Business Outlook

Pros

none - there is nothing good to say about this company

Cons

everything - hostile environment, inhumanly bad, malicious people. They torture physically and mentally and they can ruin your life. Better stay unemployed, than work among such bad, mean and rude people. If they don't like you, they make up any senseless reason to fire you. You have to be bad, incapable, unprofessional and lazy like them. Every second of my working day in Agusta was like a horror movie.
