Pros

Nice coworkers. Pay is pretty good. Lots of resources, like tools and machines that make some jobs easier.

Cons

Work life balance is not great. Not enough flexibility for hourly employees. Must use personal time or vacation for every single hour away from work. If you have an appointment or an event at your child's school you can not make up the time if you are an hourly employee. You must use all of the 40 hours per year of personal time and then your 80 hrs vacation. When working 10 hour days and overtime you have no choice sometimes. If you have a sick child or you get sick, your paid time off goes quick and you could get punished for having unpaid hours if you are out of these allotted hours.

Big corporate politics at times. Some people just love to point fingers. Rules that are very excessive due to incompetence, instead of just firing morons.

Pros

Rather decent front loaded time off. 4 day work weeks. A pretty decent off shift incentive.

Cons

Management does not care about their people. They are so far removed from what’s going on on the floor and too focused on passing the buck to someone else for their screw ups. People are placed in positions they should not be in simply because they know someone or they kiss up to someone. The people on the floor have very little fixed wing experience yet act as if they know everything. The only path they create for people to move up is A&P and even then they just want you to stay a mechanic. They neglect to realize that people stay with a company for the culture as well as leave because of it.
