Pros

More laid-back culture than bigger aerospace companies (less hierarchy), good mix of friendly people, and offers fewer but very fair benefits. Can get involved in many aspects of the work which can be much more fulfilling than being pigeonholed into a particular task - you just have to go after it. Workers are more interested in what you can accomplish rather than how credentialed you are.

Cons

Little-to-no training and high expectations of responsibilities - get ready for occasional spurts of long hour weeks and, at times, grinding away (several weeks spread out over the year in response to workload demands). Feels like being setup for failure and left to your own devices - almost a unanimous complaint from new employees but also an expectation perpetuated by the work culture (they'd rather keep this as poking stick rather than fix it with some basic training). Occasionally passive-aggressive management style and some incompetent decision making at the top.

Pros

A highly ethical company which is focused on the long term and genuinely cares about improving the industries and society they serve. -The people you work for and with are top notch. There is an atmosphere of both trust and competence. -Pay is competitive and benefits are outstanding. -Technology and Quality leaders, you can feel good about every product and service offered. -Company is well positioned to be a powerhouse in B2B.

Cons

Focus on quality and technical innovation can sometimes outstep the market's demand for it. The strong Yen has hurt pricing ability but the outlook for the yen is good and pricing should come down.
