Incompetence at every level
Incompetence at every level
Some great front-line employees.
Most local management has little or no education.
There are no ethics whatsoever.
Training is a joke; you cannot fail a class.
They create a terrible work environment to prevent longevity.
There is no recognition for loyalty.
Not a good place to work if you have a family. It can really put stress on your family life.
If you love airplanes/aviation, DO NOT work here. They will destroy your passion.
There is low starting pay and a 12-year cap for mechanics.
Kill yourselves. You're all worthless human beings.
