Business Outlook
Pros
Mentoring atmosphere - Learned so much from great hands-on experience and being taken under the wing of more experienced colleagues. Great people - especially in their HQ in Wichita, Kansas. Meaningful work - not just pushing papers. Great benefits. Treat interns very well and give them meaningful projects.
Cons
For the Wichita location only: If you're not from here, it can be lonely to relocate. Also, as Textron Aviation has a bit of a monopoly on the engineering/aerospace employment in Wichita, the pay is usually ~9% less than the national average. (But that didn't stop it from being worth it for me to work 2 years here. It really is a great environment that makes up for the pay cut.)
