Pros

There is some interesting engineering work to do here and it is good experience.

Cons

They don't seem to 'get' that they won't get loyalty without getting it. In direct engineering (sustaining) there is a 'give me five' - five hours free program (this was not communicated in my offer). 4-10 work schedule was promised (in writing) then removed the week I got there. 9 months before getting goals...no performance review...no job description. Lots of good people randomly trying to stay busy. As lots of other people have said...middle management SUCKS. The company culture is a lot of backbiting and competing for flashy projects. The people that like Savannah and want to stay will do all in their power to look good. Promotion rate is slow, you have to be completely self motivated to get good projects. People suck. Savannah is hot and boring (unless you are into restaurants and bars). The pay is just so-so now that they eliminated paid overtime. It sucks that they have lost the excitement and culture of designing an airplane and have moved to a big disorganized group of people who are terrified to be laid off. All showmanship and it's beginning to reflect in the product. Lost their passion. Avoid this company until they get their transition figured out.

Pros

Overall positive experience. People are friendly, free coffee is a huge plus. Relatively small company the projects aren't too narrow.

Cons

Everything is very hierarchical and there is room for moving up in the company, but it takes your entire career. Not necessarily a fast-paced job. Compensation for interns is somewhat low compared to other aerospace companies.

Pros

Pay is good for the industry. Most other OEMs pay less. The Leadership Team are very good a guiding the company so job stability is very good.

Cons

Middle management M5 through Director are angry all the time. A very demanding place to work with not much encouragement from management on what is required.
