Pros

Many different rotary aircraft to work on! Never bored always busy.

Cons

Work life balance is garbage in GA 50+ hours including all weekend! Management is horrible they are disrespectful and demanding. Short staffed all across the company GA has 6 mechanics and 7 aircraft with phase maintenance for all of them. Pay is below average! Vacation takes forever to accrue Sick time is a joke Management is so out of touch with the employees they called in a random person to ask why retention is so bad. They are oblivious to us and pretend to care. Do not work here mental health will decline exponentially!
