Pros

Each department that I have worked for treats people right. You're not a number, you're a person and treated as such. It's more like working for a small company within a larger one! Also we are part of Textron and usually create the lion-share of the profit for them. It's good to be on top!

Cons

It's in the aerospace industry, we have a cyclic nature. Here in 2009 we are being hit harder than some others, but it always seems that we bounce back. Also since we are a Textron company, sometimes we get "hit" because of other businesses they own.

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 ☹️
