Pros

Can be interesting work, some good people to work with.

Cons

Training mediocre; no opportunity to advance; low pay compared to other outfits; awful deployment conditions, with lower pay than most considering the effort and risk involved; management at the avionics technician level holds grudges , leadership is by intimidation, with a revolving door of technicians.

Lots of structure, tools and resources to do the job.
