Pros

Interesting and challenging projects. Work hours are flexible and benefits are acceptable. Middle management tries to do what's best for their group, not always well received up top.

Cons

Management is very reactive, sales lacks knowledge, and engineer or project management takes the brunt of the issues (which happens often).

Pros

Shining stars working the trenches to turn out good product against the odds. They have vending machines.

Cons

I have worked for some of the heaviest hitters in the aerospace industry for over 25 years. I lasted a little over a year at Labinal in Sarasota before I left....it was the only time in my career that I walked out on a job. Favoritism, nepotism and managerial incompetence run rampant at this facility and it was, without exception, the absolute worst professional experience in my career. The leadership there would be hard pressed to collectively manage their way out of a wet paper bag. I resolutely applaud those employees who continue to show up every day in spite of the rancid culture. This place had a turnover rate of over 19% in 2015 and there's a very good reason for it.

Pros

The compensation is decent, and they have free coffee.

Cons

Company is run by inept management, who only care about their perception, not the qaulity of the product they produce or design. They knowingly ship defunct product to maintain schedule. If you have any sense of integrity, do not bother applying here. The turnover has been so high, their is only one person left (If he is still there) who fully understands the product. Everyone else is new, and over their head.
