Business outlook
Pros
The excellent safety record of aviation provides a sense of fulfillment; regardless of the significance of your role in it. Retirement - TSP is matched up to 5%. Expectations are at a level that are easy to meet. Poor performance alone is usually not grounds for termination. All the work/life balance of a consistent 9-5 job. Health insurance options are affordable and decent quality.
Cons
Expectations are at a level that are easy to meet. Poor performance alone is usually not grounds for termination. Old school, outdated office environment (cube farms). While the FAA at enterprise levels is trying to keep to date technologically, the local offices are woefully outdated. Your CEO is often controversial.
