      Lack of Trust in Employees

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Cool and modern office environment. Good balance between commercial aviation and military customer base allows for steady hand in tough times.

      Cons

      Leadership still has a bit to learn about listening to employees. Intelligent, but more ego-driven than most places. Leads to a lack of trust among employees. Perhaps improving now.

      Pros

      Some of the people you work with are good.

      Cons

      I started at the company several years ago. The pay has not increased with the rising inflation, or basic cost of living. Most recent "pay raise" worked out to be a 2.4% pay cut, with the above factors. I am currently making $2 more than when I started, almost 5 years ago. Management, from Leads up, all play the political game, and if they don't like you, you will know. The Good 'Ol Boy Club is alive and well. 0/10. Would not recommend.
