Pros

Specifically referring to Lufthansa Technik's subsidiary in the United States for both Pros & Cons. - Flight benefits - Very little micro management - Work schedule flexibility - You'll never get fired (also see cons) - Career Opportunities (pre-Covid)

Cons

- Mediocre health benefits and (now) average 401k. - Below average salaries for the industry. - Unexplainably bad managers / management across the entire organization. - Misalignment and miscommunication across departments including with other divisions/mother company. - Disconnect between working level and managers fostering unrealistic and sometimes impossible goals. - Loss of almost all "good" talent due to extremely bad management of pandemic-related efforts. - Lack of industry knowledge creates vast obstacles, delusions, and often times generating many issues. - Terribly poor cultural diversity / understanding. A German company with absolutely no will to adhere to American culture in even the most minimalistic capacity. - Work place harassment by some managers (non-sexual), fostering a hostile environment. - Senior leadership in-region incapable of making hard decisions thus enabling a stand-still for months agitating many necessary strategic topics. - Bad employees will never be reprimanded or fired thus many teams are filled with majority of incapable individuals.

Pros

Culturally rich and diverse. Many differing backgrounds from all over the world. You can form a decent bond with your coworkers, and most employed know what to do and how to do it. Management is average with an exception of one or two being great. Great vacation and PTO time versus other like companies. Climate controlled.

Cons

Lackluster management that aren't clued into the floor and what's happening, how the culture is, and how the overall vibe is. It used to be come and go as you please as long as your work was completed in a timely fashion. They started to tighten up in/out clock in times which defeated the purpose of the lower than normal wages. Management seemingly promotes their friends/buddy's, which is almost standard in any workplace not in tune to who's ACTUALLY capable. They've promoted more than a few unqualified people into positions that had a lot of us scratching our heads in confusion.
