Pros

A work-performance oriented company with the benefits of both a large and small company. You are not yet another drop in the ocean akin to the larger aerospace defense contractors. Your individual efforts and successes are often recognized at higher levels than your immediate supervisors and peers. At the same time, Gulfstream is a company which is at the cutting edge of technology and capabilities meaning the time you spend here is easily working with or developing future technologies (not utilizing "hand-me-down" processes or toolsets from the industry).

Cons

Savannah is better than Wichita, KS... but it's not the largest city in the world either.

Cons

Big corporate politics at times. Some people just love to point fingers. Rules that are very excessive due to incompetence, instead of just firing morons.

Pros

Rather decent front loaded time off. 4 day work weeks. A pretty decent off shift incentive.

Cons

Management does not care about their people. They are so far removed from what’s going on on the floor and too focused on passing the buck to someone else for their screw ups. People are placed in positions they should not be in simply because they know someone or they kiss up to someone. The people on the floor have very little fixed wing experience yet act as if they know everything. The only path they create for people to move up is A&P and even then they just want you to stay a mechanic. They neglect to realize that people stay with a company for the culture as well as leave because of it.
