Pros

There are no pros. If you wanna get treated like garbage cause you are a contracting then by all means work here

Cons

My first week there my lead wanted to fire me for no apparent reason what so ever other than he didn't like went to HR for help but got none a week later I'm terminated. Many Spanish speaking people breaking things on the plain and locals getting the blame for it. Management doesn't communicate very with anyone. One hand doesn't know what the other hand is doing. Management can make any descision above 5th grade level. Good ole boys club to the max. If you are a contractor DO NOT waste your time and money coming here. You will be sorry.

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.
