Competitive salary with the opportunity to work on exciting, unique and leading edge technologies.

Continue reading - Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★

Management is horrible. Upper management is too "old school" to adapt to the future environment of work. Project management does not know how to correctly bid a project which results in poor schedules and over worked employees

Continue reading - Current Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
Location, paycheck, 9/80 days. You get to go home after the work day is over
Cons
Low pay. No architecture in the system. Management designing systems to fail. Many people working at GA with outdated skills sets. Dumb people from entry level all the way up to director level are at GA. One can literally fail on every project and get promoted as long as your boss and upper management fail also... it’s the GA way...

Pros
Good pay, benefits and work environment.
Cons
Upper management and it seems there always looking for someone to throw under the bus and make a example of what not to do. Even had one a manager, on a number of times. Mess with lunches, aircraft, stuff around the aircraft during a operation, trying to catch someone on a safety violation or anything else he could fine. Had one lead tell me, he seen a hatch open on the aircraft put wasn't going to say anything. Hoping the Crew Chief wouldn't catch it, and make a example of him not doing a thorough walk around. Luckily he seen it before the chucks were pulled.

Continue reading - Current Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★
Pros
Close knit and a bit smaller than than the big aerospace companies. Fair compensation.
Cons
Work ebbs and flows based on whims of upper management. Spread out between the high desert and north San Diego area.
