Company strives to be the best place to work - NOT!

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

the best of executive management is gone... CEO, various Sr. VP's and VP's from other locations. It was a great place to work for until Dubai Aero Space, the owners, got greedy

Cons

The company can't no longer be trusted for their interest in their employees and being the best place to work. Since CEO, Rob Mionis was let go, employees have feared for their jobs. Employees with excellent work history and performance have been laid off while employees with work or attendance issues remain. Job satisfaction is no longer in their vocabulary. The HR team has spent more time working on a restructure that is set up to fail. Their loss are the performers they let go. Dubai Aerospace wants this company sold so they can have more cash, they don't care about the employees or the clients they serve. Bottom line, their money wants to be returned to Dubai. Way to go HR...sell the company and sell the employees down the river

If you want to be pushed around because you are not part of the clique, then work here.

Business Outlook

Pros

Location is great. Some of the people are great to work for.

Cons

You only get promoted if you are part of the clique or associated with managent clique. They make up postions for people in their clique and don't allow anyone else to apply for the job. The management talks down to people, hollers at you, is abusive and unfair if you are not someone that is a department mole. People in the cliques get to do whatever they want and the people who have to work while they play are ridiculed by those who play and management says or does nothing about it.
