Pros

Low labor. Laid back employees " not management "

Cons

Merged with a company paying 15 per hr. Kept their employees at 12.50 per hr. Zero communication between field work dispatch and management.. pay out of pocket for all benefits. Absolutely no steady schedule. One week your working 3 days on 3 days off but later that week it changes to 5 days on 2 days off and the who knows it's a guessing game. But mainly the pay raise or lack there of.. if they don't at least meet somewhere in the middle or match what thomas employees are making THERE WILL NOT BE ANYMORE EMPLOYEES. From the pilot side... also your priorities are all out of order instead of worrying about cleaning the pick up trucks "off the clock" maybe you should hire some mechanics that actually work on them..

Pros

Pay is decent for Knoxville Benefits are good Coworkers are the only thing holding this place together

Cons

The culture has taken a nosedive. The new CFO sets the tone, and that tone is basically “I don’t care.” That attitude trickles down through leadership and it shows in every decision being made. The return‑to‑office mandate is a perfect example. It’s not about productivity — it’s about control. People with long commutes are burning hours of their lives just to sit in the office on Zoom calls they used to take from home. Morale is the lowest it has ever been. Entire teams have been gutted because people are quitting faster than they can be replaced. The workload dumped on whoever stays is unsustainable. Communication from leadership is cold, dismissive, and out of touch. Feedback goes nowhere. Concerns are brushed off. Decisions are made with zero regard for how they impact employees. Constant reorganizations create chaos. Roles change overnight, expectations shift constantly, and employees are expected to absorb more and more with no support. The company used to feel people‑focused. Now it feels like a machine that’s grinding down the very people who keep it running.
