Pros

Somewhat stable. Longevity as an employee is attainable. Exciting work, but it can be very physical.

Cons

Employees will be on nightshift for a very long time if they are Aircraft Maintenance Technicians. Work rules have been eroded due to past bankruptcy. Benefits are average. The management team is inexperienced and rather combative. A recent takeover has left all work groups struggling to regain their footing. There is a lot of responsibility, but the wages do not reflect it. The work group is represented by a weak and ineffectual union.

Advice to Management

Let the employees be more involved in decision-making at the local level.
