Not that great!

Pros

I enjoyed some of the people I worked with. The pay is good and paycheck is dependable. The benefits are plentiful but expensive and deductible is extremely high.

Cons

I was laid off after 15 years of service and lost pension. I planned to retire from the company but was walked out without even consideration of jobs that were currently open and that I qualified for. The environment is stale and quiet. Sitting in a maze of cubes in complete silence without windows can be very depressing. The only thing that keeps you from losing your mind is every other Friday off. They do nothing to build morale.

An okay place to start

Pros

Took a chance on me and allowed me to get my foot in the door.

Cons

A cold compassionless bureaucratic company with no heart and soul. I was hired at too high a level because I had a master's degree but punished for it the whole time I was there even though it was not my fault. The worst part about this company is that it doesn't make any kind of investments into its employees. It pushes all the responsibility of growth and development onto the employee and if the employee doesn't seem to grow or develop to their satisfaction is pushed around or pushed out. I really hated being attacked by the constant performance reviews to justify my existence there. Maybe they would be a better company if they got over themselves. I was so happy when I found the other company and could get away from this nightmare. I will never work for this company again even if they offered millions to me unless I saw they changed.

Pros

Good benefits, climate controlled hangars (heat), company supplied tools, lots of company events where food and souvenirs are given out

Cons

extreme lack of aviation experience within management, no aircraft familiarization courses or training provided to employees (with minor exceptions), company supplied tools, management expects and forces certain people to act as leads without officially giving them the title and paying them accordingly, the ACE program has wasted more time and money than it has saved, the left hand doesn't know what the right is doing
