Pros

- We were given the whole year's vacation at the beginning of the year rather than waiting for it to accrue - Nice referral bonus if you get someone to come and stay a little while - Get to use up to 12 floating holidays and a few freebies

Cons

Boy are there a lot of these: - No room to move up, at all - Boss has told us we do not get promotions period - Pays much less than the average for the field ex: I work with several people that make more than me and don't have a degree, I have an engineering degree - Will not negotiate offered pay at hiring, it's take it or leave it - More or less ignored by HQ because of the isolation at NM site - No training offered

Best people, worst benefits

Pros

It's actually an environment that feels like family! Best people I have ever worked with. Everyone pitches in to get the job done! Very fun to be around pilots, planes and the culture of aviation.

Cons

Due to the nature of retired pilots now working at an older age the health insurance is outrageously expensive! Cannot work here if you want to start a family, have a family with children at home. Or, I suppose you must make good money as a manager to do so.
