Pros

Interesting and diverse work. Good benifits. Good amount of vacation.

Cons

The culture around engineering is everyone gets promoted mostly based off years of service. Several groups best employees are not the highest paid or have the higher titles (i.e. Staff Engineer). This keeps the average to below average employees happy, but quickly runs off the best employees in the company.

Pros

PTO, somewhat of a 'decent' salary

Cons

Management, both in the center & corporate. The work tasks are too demanding for the BS pay we get. The verbal abuse we get from pilots. Management has zero issue letting you know when you've done something wrong but if they do something wrong.. nothing happens? Oh I'm away from my computer for more than 15 minutes and now I'm getting scolded by not being on the phone? We can't speak freely. We have to watch what we say on the phone cause everything is recorded. The St. Louis location is a joke, with their petty front desk staff & gaslighting managers. The only people who are cool in the St Louis location are their PM's. This whole company needs a redo. Oh & if you're a biological female.. you're not safe if a transgender woman wants to use your bathroom.
