Pros

Pros are the three day weekend every other week. It is pretty laid back here and not a lot of supervision which can be a good or a bad thing. They will never lay anyone off and it's really tough to get fired.

Cons

PAY AND RAISES. The pay is crap compared to most aerospace companies and the raises are a JOKE. You have to wait a whole year to get a 3 to 5% raise depending on if your supervisor likes you. A lot of politics here just like anywhere else and it seems as though all the higher ups are Caucasian, so you know you're chances of moving up to management are slim. A lot of workers are very content so the company doesn't expect employees to try and work their way up the ladder. Pretty much being in tight with the right people is the only way to move up quickly in this company.

Pros

Managers are very supportive and foster growth while challenging you. Semi flexible schedule - can come in early or stay late to meet required hours. Decent pay, tuition reimbursement, 401k matching, Mentorship opportunities

Cons

Leadership tends to get ahead of themselves with potential large contracts. Begin to invest a lot of time and money prior to contracts being awarded. Could be more clear on company goals and mission. Limited salary increase when changing roles.
