Pros

Clean work Enviroment, friendly people.Cross training is always available in other areas.Clean cafeteria with good healthy choices to select from.

Cons

This is where it gets interesting.SAL was once a good place to work....you actually had a career to go to.....but now its just a job.Since DAE purchased SAL,it was all down hill from there.....with wages being frozen,the 2% cost of living gone,very poor wage increases(less than 4%).Yes they certainly brought their own culture to Canada.Poor pension plan,vision care has not kept in line with inflation.....Bonus program......seriously.I know that there are lot of engines out there to be overhauled and only a few in our building......its pretty safe to say that the work is going south.i have never spent so much time on non prod in my history with this company.I have seen so many talented technicians leave the company over the years....all for greener pastures.What i don't understand is why SAL spends so much money on training and development for its employees on cross training.....only to watch them walk out the door over a few more cents an hour.....wow.If the employees are a the back bone of this organization....SAL has alot to learn on how to take much better care of its assets.This ship is the Titanic...and we all know what happened to that.
