Pros

Privately held, independent work environment, nice working conditions, good hours, and decent pay. Secure environment, plenty of company functions and celebrations. Open door policy.

Cons

Business down turn resulting in layoffs and moral issues. New managerial philosophy away from people focused. Job security not what it was in the past. Big wigs get lots of perks with no significant increases for workers.

Pros

Great family environment. Excellent camaraderie between employees.

Cons

Upper management seems to favor specific company locations. Not a lot of value placed on performing well (no performance based raises in years).

Pros

Universal Avionics (UA) provides a solid and steady place to work. Most departments have a low attrition rate. Management and staff are professional and there isn't much office drama. Privately-owned company. Self-insured. Very nice facility with lots of office space. Plenty of parking.

Cons

This is a very staid company and the pay is abysmal. This is not the place to come for working in a fast-paced, innovative environment. There is little room for career advancement. Promotions seldom occur unless someone has vacated their post by retiring or leaving. There seems to be a perceived division between corporate employees and staff employees, almost like a company "caste system". The benefits are okay, but far from stellar. Tuition reimbursement rates have not kept up with the true cost of education. Medical premiums are high. Did I mention the pay is abysmal?
