Pros

Get the opportunity to work on various projects, practice technical skills and work with some good folks that u form lasting friendships with. If ur desperately looking for a job, be sure to bring up the mandatory OT in ur interview.

Cons

DO NOT go into completions if ur not willing to do mandatory overtime (OT). The 4x10 schedule is not existent in completions engineering. There’s a whole bunch of foreign workers who have left their families and come here to make money aka OT. They don’t care if they r called fridays/Saturday’s or even sundays. If ur not willing to do that, management will compare u to these folks and that will work against u.

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.
