Pros

Nice co-workers and it's close to the Metro

Cons

Pretty much everything! This contract services TSA, Lockheed under-bid the contract in the beginning, so don't expect great pay or any type of raises. Management is just trying to keep their heads above water on this contract. So, there are absolutely no perks and expect to be asked to make a financial "contribution" when it comes time for the company picnic and holiday party. It's very sad the way employees are treated on this contract. I can promise you, if you come to work here, you'll regret it.

Pros

There are none other than having a job, if that's what you want to call it.

Cons

Greedy management. Wanting to cut mechanics so multiple site leads can keep their jobs. Absolutely no contribution to employee health care leaving premiums of over $1,400 a month for employees. Allowing "created" jobs from good ole boy system to stay drawing high salaries to continue. No opportunity for advancement, regardless of education or experience. Leads and below are dropping like flies. Continues to force impossible timeline standards by intimidation of layoffs. They cut mechanics, cut timelines, and are wanting to accomplish more work in less time to "save costs" but still have three site supervisors collecting over $100,000 a year and numerous "management" positions with undefined roles collecting over $36 an hour. Good luck getting these people to fix your airplanes. This contract was looked at completely wrong and it's going downhill fast.

Pros

-Sometimes have interesting work and can work on some interesting products. - Many of the coworkers do encourage you to learn if you are willing to ask the right questions. - The flex 4/10 schedule is good for working around your life schedule but can be exhausting when you have to go into the office.

Cons

-Upper management pats themselves on the back while pushing off promotions for their employees. -Bad leaders up the chain use the Good ol’ Boy system to keep people with million dollar salaries who just take naps at their desk and let their programs fail. -Sometimes given large assignments that managers knew for months last minute and expected to be done in two weeks or less. -Lots of people are leaving right now so every team is a skeleton crew with employees working two/three times what they should be. -Facilities are a wreck post pandemic (raccoons in the office, A/C not working for months, littered with wasp nests, etc).
