Pros

Wide range of aircraft with Cessna and Beechcraft products. Flies all over the world year round, keeping things new and interesting

Cons

No aviation people in leadership roles, including CEO. Business decisions similar to models that have bankrupted previous companies

Pros

The 4-10 hr workdays were nice. The benefits, especially the parental leave (excused time to take a child to the doctor) were great.

Cons

The company is susceptible to the cyclical aviation market. Although i was not laid off, it is very troubling to see friends and coworkers you work with every day out of work.
