Pros

You get to solve real world problems effecting our daily lives. There is a decent work-life balance.

Cons

There needs to be more accountability and oversight. There are too many people making insignificant contributions with no fear of being reprimanded.

Great place to start in Aerospace, but move on quickly

Pros

Great place to work right out of college or early on in your career, especially if you want to work in the Aerospace Industry, a lot of opportunity to network with other, larger Aerospace companies. The company is small enough that you feel like you are part of a family, great co-workers. There are a lot of brilliant people that work there, from whom you can learn a lot and build your skills. Vacation time is better than most local companies.

Cons

For non-technical positions, the salary is not competitive at all, they place all their value on technical skills (engineers) and do not value non-technical skills much (business positions such as finance, accounting, HR, project management, purchasing, etc. ). You will need to be comfortable with a lot of stress and high-pressure, will never be a 40-hour-a-week job, they will push you to your fullest potential (which can be seen as a positive too). Because it is a small, local division, there is not much room for growth unless you don't mind moving out of state or overseas.

Great hourly employees and site level managers who are engaged and fully support one another at local site. High focus on customer support and quality product.

Unreasonable performance expectations from executive management in order to reach higher profit margins.
