Pros

Aside from the only slightly above average pay, there really aren't any pros.

Cons

If you want to go exactly nowhere in an intensely stressful job where you are micro-managed to a molecular level, then AirCom is the place for you! Taking multiple requests while simultaneously monitoring vital radio traffic, flight tracking data, and memorizing arcane local policies are just a few of the bonuses this job provides. Make a mistake while monitoring up to 12 aircraft? You can rest assured you will never hear the end of it. Oh, an you can do all this in a room that has the noise levels of the monkey house at the zoo and the ambient light of a moderately sized cave. At least there are opportunities for advancement! Wait, nope. Not at all. Run, do not walk away from this place.

Pros

Only pro was the hiring process which consisted of two interviews and then an offer. That should have been the first red flag.

Cons

Private Equity controlled organization. No onboarding process or training provided. You are sent to their HQ for two days of learning how to turn your computer on and how to open a couple of computer applications. They are looking for a zero to hero hire. Be prepared. Tumultuous with lots of turnover. Was told this was a career-long role and in a couple of short months, the CEO was fired, the VP of sales took off. New executive leadership team created an environment of fear and layoffs. Lots of huge egos and very little tolerance for questioning poor business decisions and strategies. No attention given to the voice of the customer and what would strategically help move the needle. It really gives off the odor of a company trying to be sold.
