Great place if you care about the mission

Pros

Most of the employees care about the mission. They offer a benefit to help get or maintain your pilots license. Flexible schedules for some positions.

Cons

Too hierarchical, so much is based on your title. Revenue is down, meaning important programs are limited or even cut.

Pros

AOPA offers an excellent benefits package. Medical, Vision, Dental, 401K match of 100% up to first 6.5% and over $3,000 annually for flying proficiency. Plenty of vacation time, holidays off, company picnics, gym membership reimbursement, etc.

Cons

Promotions are awarded to "favorite" employees and cannot be earned. Your success depends on how how much brown nosing you do. No clear path for advancement. In the Tech Specialist department, favorites are promoted to Senior Specialist and given a 10% plus raise for doing the exact same job. Management cannot (will not) detail how to get promoted. They explicitly state that the promotion is subjective.

Sinking ship avoid at all cost

Pros

Flying benefits, some employees are good

Cons

Toxic culture. Leadership is terrible and takes no responsibility for major decline in paid memberships. The salary for anyone other than leadership is a joke. When the new President comes in he should wipe out the current leadership team and start over.
