Pros

In the hangar you are given ample wide-body aircraft experience, with generally knowledgeable leadership. Lots of opportunities to learn if you have the mind to take advantage.

Cons

The company wants to compete with the “big leagues”, but thinks the way to get there is to do more with less (I.e stretching their workforce to dangerous levels, and bringing in bargain store mechanics) instead of paying enough to attract talented/competent individuals

Pros

Good Benefits, Ability to learn

Cons

Senior Management is dissociated from MX. All appearances are that we are peasants not worth the pay they give us. If you aren't in engine shop or the line you are treated like dirt.
