Pros
It's good pay in relation to other aerospace companies in the area. The benefits were acceptable, although constantly being whittled down with each passing year. The work environment is good so long as you don't end up with a manager who practices micro-management, looking over your shoulder at every turn. Good vacation and holiday pay and time off.
Cons
Many of the managers are promoted from an organizational group referred to as "Planning." Far too many of them are quota-fillers, which promotes a diverse team of manangers alright, but with many of them being utterly incompetent to manage operations over which they're placed. What makes the situation worse is that some of the worst and most incompetent, first-line managers are the ones promoted to middle and upper management. It was this structure of management that carried over when the plant was purchased by ONEX, and named Spirit Aerosystems. The morale at the plant is still very low because of poor "people" skills and even worse management skills.
