Pros

The lack of strong business processes and policies can result in large responsibilities and quick promotions for the lucky.

Cons

Corporate management doesn't know what to do with the Cargo Systems division. Constant personnel changes in division management contributed to the firm's challenges in competence and business processes.

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.
