Pros

As long as you do what you are told and expected to do, then all will be well.

Cons

No room for innovation and improving process quality and efficiency. Change is not looked at positively. When process changes are needed there is nothing but excruciatingly poor planning and execution. Executives run the company based on what increases their shares at the end of each quarter, so there is an unnecessary amount of sub contract work when simple in house solutions can be made (but that takes too long in the short run and there is never a sufficient budget for research and development). So again, if you’re looking for somewhere to be a creative and innovative engineer, StandardAero is not for you. Otherwise if you like just being told what to do and doing it with no fuss then this would be a great job for you.

Pros

Great cheap designer gear Lots of supplier benefits Great expenses Great sick pay Lots of time off for personal days Lots of training Great overseas trips in 2017/8 Lots of meals out for team building

Cons

Corner cutting You have to have a trailer with the “ in crowd” to progress Lots of dumb “make me feel happy schemes”. All for the social influence of the management.

Pros

Cross Training available, just need to show initiative. Great people to work with

Cons

Raises don’t align with cost of living, paycheck is slowly eroding away. It shouldn’t take your whole working life to reach top rate if that’s even achievable.
