Hello, & thank-you for the review. Very much appreciate! 10-4 on #Growth, as today, AIR: NYSE, blasted towards a 50 day high, so Outlook is solid. Within the DNA of the Company, there is a certain shyness, connected to overall mission of airworthiness, yet will continue to drive awareness. Oh, and Wood Dale office does offer shuttle service, back & forth to the train station, so that could help with travel from downtown Chicago. Finally, AAR does have a quaint Loop office. Blue skies! Very Respectfully, G-Man #WorkAsOne

Pros

good pay and that's it.

Cons

everything. where to start - new employees are treated like garbage. no vacation days until 6 months then you get 3 days.... for an entire year (sick/vacation). useless pto. no insurance... even though you are working for AAR they use a staffing company - which is still aar to get away with this. not paid for hours worked - manipulate hours/pay weeks in order to avoid paying OT. scummy leadership, favoritism, and unless you're related to or sleeping with someone in leadership - you will get laid off.
