Pros

6% 401k match, fast promotions in Savannah, looks good on the resume, opportunities for several lateral moves to explore new areas, work is interesting

Cons

Good old boy network is strong. Need to either be ex military, Christian, white or republican to move up the ladder. Initiative gets hammered down immediately so try not to stick out for ANY reason good or bad. The sites have a good work atmosphere devoid of the good old boy system but absolutely no career progression. The whole company follows the motto “ rules depend on the person the rule is being applied to”.

Big corporate politics at times. Some people just love to point fingers. Rules that are very excessive due to incompetence, instead of just firing morons.

Pros

Rather decent front loaded time off. 4 day work weeks. A pretty decent off shift incentive.

Cons

Management does not care about their people. They are so far removed from what’s going on on the floor and too focused on passing the buck to someone else for their screw ups. People are placed in positions they should not be in simply because they know someone or they kiss up to someone. The people on the floor have very little fixed wing experience yet act as if they know everything. The only path they create for people to move up is A&P and even then they just want you to stay a mechanic. They neglect to realize that people stay with a company for the culture as well as leave because of it.
