Pros

Pay check is always on time.

Cons

F.O.R's are moving into Indy. "Friends of Rick" Lack of advancement regardless what HR says. Buddy system gets you advanced. Constant change of upper management that results in constant changes to work schedules. Management has no interest in their employees. Thankless job. Management is reactive not proactive. AAR hire and rehire people I wouldn't let work on hot wheels, let alone an airplane. Quality mechanics are dwindling. Most docks have a doom and gloom feeling. Moral is low.

Pros

Coworkers are sometimes great. Supervisors are ok.

Cons

Shift managers are arrogant and destroying team morale. The toxic leadership is destroying the team that is still there and forcing them to look for work elsewhere.
