Pros

Comradery with fellow employees was like one big family. A&P Mechanics were not paid so well and would leave to the airlines constantly.

Cons

Company mis-managed even before I started in 2007. Apparently whatever company owned them was just there to build up the books to make a quick-sell for the shareholders. Eventually shut down December 2017 after unsuccessful attempts to find a new buyer.

Pros

There are still many dedicated employees across the organization who care deeply about the work, customers, and results. Historically, the company benefited from strong institutional knowledge and a collaborative environment that supported operational success.

Cons

In recent years, there has been a noticeable shift in culture and organizational approach following senior leadership changes. This included significant turnover and restructuring that affected both personnel and established processes. As a result, many long-standing practices and experienced team members were replaced or deprioritized quickly, and in some cases without fully retaining institutional knowledge that previously supported efficiency and consistency. This transition has contributed to a decline in morale and trust among portions of the workforce. Communication and employee engagement have also felt more top-down, and the organization has, at times, felt more disconnected from the operational teams who execute the day-to-day work.
