Pros

Work environment is ok, pay is nothing special, don’t expect raises that keep up with cost of living. Coworkers are the best part, company advertises rewarding career, used to be that way.

Cons

My coworkers and I have all made complaints to the ethics hotline about components repairs president, but no action is taken. Inappropriate acts like threats against PTO use, and assignments over weekends are the norm now. Many have left, many others are looking. Corporate HR doesn’t take ethics seriously as they have done nothing.
