Pros

Good pay for novice-intermediate A&P technicians Average benefits 6% matching 401k On-site medical Provide tools

Cons

Pay flattens out at a below-average level for senior level technicians Very dysfunctional and disorganized Most important thing is their bottom line, many corners get cut Way too much "tribal knowledge" Manuals are incomplete/incorrect and written by people that have never touched an aircraft Not a very good hiring process, way too many "less than average" mechanics get hired Horrible location. Get used to smelling paper mills, sitting in traffic, and dodging bullets.

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.
