Benefits are great, but IT and other policies are ridiculous! - Engineer FlightSafety International Employee Review

Pros

Great benefits. Candidates start out with 2 weeks of vacation for the first 5 years and have the capability of accruing up to 40 hours of comp-time (overtime worked) which can be taken as additional vacation at a later time along with 2 personal days a year. The atmosphere is very relaxed most of the time and management is flexible with working hours for most departments. You have great opportunities to move up in chain and go from being a technician to management fairly quickly.

Cons

IT policies and security settings can make your job very difficult as a lot of things are blocked, prohibited, or very slow to get to. The companies goal with this is to protect intellectual property as well as ITAR/EAR restricted leaks.

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.
