Pros

Great aircraft, lots of work, plenty of action, high level of individual responsibility, a place to thrive if you have the right attitude and live to work!

Cons

Expectation level and ambition of this company is off the clock. High levels of overtime, sometimes mandatory. The company runs engineering extremely lean, no time to breathe. Great if you love total immersion, difficult if you like to have a full life outside of the company. Work / Family balance can certainly be an issue. Local doctors joke about how much Stress medications are prescribed to Gulfstream employees!

Pros

-Work in an air conditioned hangar! -All the tools and support needed to do the job -Excellent training available -Good safety culture -Fairly easy work -Lots of opportunities to grow

Cons

Big corporate politics at times. Some people just love to point fingers. Rules that are very excessive due to incompetence, instead of just firing morons.

Pros

PTO policy is pretty straight forward and a decent amount of time. If you’re right out of high school or your only desire is to turn wrenches you’re entire life, this place is for you. Three day weekends.

Cons

There is no mobility. They can’t find mechanics so if you are one, they will keep you there at all costs. They fully rely on the good old boy system. The people that are in management positions, especially at West Palm, do not care about anything other than staying where they are and using what little power they think they have. Management is very customer focused but forget their employees. Health benefits are seriously lacking.
