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.

Eroding Work/Life balance, Too Many Chiefs, Poor Values

Business Outlook

Pros

Excellent Compensation. And truthfully, Gulfstream hires some of the most talented and motivated employees anywhere in the industry. Most of the non-manager personnel are a joy to work with.

Cons

Contractors are treated so poorly here. Gulfstream uses contractors as a buffer to it's directly hired workforce. Expect insane hours and demands, and then to be fired (RIF'd) at the drop of the hat. Work Life balance took a hard hit recently. Effective on January 1, 2016 all business units will move from 4x10 workweek to 5x8 workweek. If recruiters are selling you on work/life balance then one should question that strongly. Dishonesty, Misinformation, and other forms of ridiculousness abound here. I feel like there are so many levels of underdeveloped, under-utilized, and un-encouraged talent here.

Pros

Everyone I encountered there seemed to be really happy with their job. Competitive salary and benefits. Rapidly growing company. Good location.

Cons

The interview process was quite lengthy. It took about 3.5 months from application to offer. Other than that, I have been very pleased with everything.
