Pros

The DFW site has a very good culture. They sponsor 5K participation, recognize anniversaries, sponsor major holiday lunches, host friendly competitions (e.g. cornhole & chilli cookoffs). Leadership is more than fair. I've worked at a different location in the company. In both, I've been happy with the work and teams. For someone that likes engineering, it's hard to beat working on aviation engines. The work is always interesting.

Cons

There's some short comings mostly due to some of the shop letting quality items slip. That then impacts customer experience and more work coming to the shop. The financial standing is a bit shaky due to this. For what's it's worth, the quality escapes are not reflective of the company values. It has more to due from lacking tenue/experience on shop floor. There's a lot of local competition (GE, MTU, BP Aero, etc.) for aviation maintenance mechanics & techs. So there's been quite a bit of turnover there agitating the situation. Leadership is pushing for quality and slowing down production when there's any risk. They're in the process of implementing more support to counter this trend.

Pros

Shop floor co-workers pleasure to work with.

Cons

A company that promotes core values of integrity,honesty,transparency and investing in workforce.Non of these are adhered too.They promote failure and none of the management are held responsible for there actions and behaviour supported by HR department.A very toxic environment unless you’re in the lodge.
