Pros

Great work/life balance. Every couple years there's a "crunch" time where 60 hour weeks are commong, but it usually only lasts for a couple months. Not too bad. Cessna does pay overtime if you're under a certain pay grade, so it can be an opportunity for extra income. Pay is good for the midwest. Company is friendly and relaxed at times, which makes for a fun environment.

Cons

Sometimes projects can get cancelled and there is a lot of report writing since we have to appeal to the FAA.

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 ☹️
