Pros

A lot of experienced aviation professionals.

Cons

No growth unless you're in the right department or know the right people. Salary is the same way as well.

Not the company I used to work for...

Pros

I used to work for ILFC, before it is taken over by AerCap. I can't find many pros about AerCap except the travel opportunities and some training (though I had to get trained for 2 years).

Cons

Many. The executives do not seem to have the knowledge to manage their staff. No flexibility in working hours, no good bonuses as before with ILFC, no good salary increases. The company has made clear to the employees that they work for the stakeholders while ILFC used to work for the employees. I can't think this company going well with the existing mentality. Benefits are ridiculous. Offering a class B food for the employees does not make the company good...

Toxic culture

Pros

Neat offices, centrally located in Dublin with great lunch and facilities

Cons

Culture is toxic, managers rule by fear, office politics are way more important than results. The company is a revolving door but they don't care about retaining talent and sometimes it seems that the most difficult people that can't work well in teams get promoted
