      Pros

      Cessna seemed interested in finding the right place for me to work. They were flexible with my work schedule to accommodate my school class schedule.

      Cons

      Industry is cyclical and layoffs occur every few years. Lots of paperwork and documentation required by FAA. There are months when all you do is write the reports that are needed for certification.

      Pros

      I worked for Cessna over 7 years and while I experienced the high-side of the economy, when it did go bad, the company maintained a professional learning experience for me through those difficult times. Cessna offers numerous growth opportunities and I loved working for them.

      Cons

      The negative attention on Aviation industries has been felt throughout the company and to its personnel. Compensation advancement is slow and it is feast of famine to keep your job even with a high performance rating or having critical roles in the business and this has unfortunately hurt morale. Now that Beechcraft is being integrated, more work-force reductions will result in talented people being treated as disposable financial numbers. I was made into one.
