Pros

Paychecks don't bounce. Ken Ricci provides stand up comedy once a quarter where he brags about how many planes he is going to buy.

Cons

Management does not value seniority. Since the purchase of Flexjet it has become Floptions (Flight Options) Anything that was efficient or practical Flexjet has done away with and is now operating as a masked version of FO. The culture has changed since the company was sold. Management has the attitude that workers are replaceable. Its a keep quiet and work or find another job mentality.

Pros

Benefits package is pretty stellar. Work schedule is one of the best I've seen in the aviation industry.

Cons

Tooling is an absolute nightmare. The tooling that we do have is HANDMADE, and often broken. Tribalism is absolutely a problem. Good Ole boys club is prevalent. There is absolutely no preparation for inbound aircraft needing large inspections. We dont even have wheels for this location and has to be shipped in(even though this location does over half of the maintenance for the company).
