Pros

- Flexible Work Hours, As long as you work your 40 hrs of the week they don't really mind how you distribute it. - Laid Back Work environment - Depending on position attire is business casual (emphasis on the casual) - Offer free fruit (2x a week) - Caters food for events - High Moral (85% of the time) - credit union ATM in every building - For my position I only worked with my coworkers, so I didn't interact with customers or new faces (that's a plus for me, don't like customer service)

Cons

- No Bonuses - Applying/Interview/Hire takes forever...HR is slow - Depending on the position, Its difficult to measure work performance for reviews - For my position I didn't have a "regular" work load. Whenever upper management had work for me I would do it and when I didnt, I had to go find work or just do "busy" work. - I would randomly get slammed with work that needed to be done in a ridiculous turn around time. Some of the Upper management wouldnt keep my team in the loop and then dump the work on us last minute. - There are alot of export regulations that needed to be followed but most employees either didn't know about or adhere to. So when working with those individuals there would be some arguments on how things got done. - Not a Secure work environment, there is always layoffs.. I was there 11 months and they did 4 layoffs, I made it to the 4th round :( - No admins, if you need to order supplies you have to find someone with an Ariba Acct and pray they have a large credit balance.

Pros

The most chill aviation job I have ever worked at. No regular near weekly audits , no micro management from supervisors. No incompetent tool crib attendant to deal with. All smaller tools like torque wrenches, safety cable guns, mega ohm meters, etc are in a vending machine style tool bin manager. QA is very knowledgeable and extremely fast when placing a call with them for an inspection, or witnessing torque or anything. I've never had to wait more than 10 mins, even when they are short handed a person. As far as the whole parts procurement dept and the parts runners go they seem pretty legit as well. Doesn't matter if I need a hyd pump, a press switch or just a bag of screws. If I don't get the part that day within a few mins to hours, its there the next day.

Cons

The only thing I can really nitpick is that the factory and the service center hangers have A/C. But not where im at ☹️
