Pros

I Love getting paid Over time and having Fridays off. The 4x10 schedule is the biggest pro. The salaries are ok, but are not competitive.

Cons

The company does not pay to keep up with inflation. Expect only 2% raise each year even if you are rated wonderfully. The company is taking away the 4x10 schedule. There are way too many chiefs and no value in the worker bees.

Pros

GAC has a more entrepreneurial culture than a Lockheed or Boeing. Task assignments are not as rigidly divided within a department like they are at the bigger aerospace primes. It makes it easy to get experience at things you haven't done before, and build more skills. Young engineers can get good assignments that would have taken you years to get anywhere else, as long as you're willing to jump in and work hard. You usually have to work harder than you would elsewhere, but paid overtime is available more often.

Cons

People tend to work five to ten years here and then leave, taking tribal knowledge with them, and what they did while they were here is usually not documented well. As a result, the best way to know why something was done a certain way is to ask whoever worked on it before, and if that person has left the company you have to reinvent the wheel, and then you only find out later the company has already been down that road before and you wasted time and effort. 4/10 schedule and overtime are bad for people with young kids. If you bring your spouse with you to Savannah, she'll often have trouble finding a good job because not as many good employers in this area as a big city.
