Pros

Marvin Engineering Company (MEC) is a small family owned aerospace company with solid plans for expansion. With over sixty years in the industry, the company rarely experiences layoffs, and many employees have over ten years at the company. The company values its employees as mirrored in their mission statement. The location is ideal as it is close to LAX, multiple major sports and entertainment venues, and many restaurants.

Cons

MEC is challenged to compensate employees at the going rate for the industry. Due to the size of the company, one person may have to wear multiple hats.
