Pros

- Smart people who know way, way too much about aviation. High expectations push you to perform. - Great work/life balance. - Beautiful office. - The business is growing so you can advance quickly. If you can wrangle different stakeholders you can have a lot of influence on the direction and design of new projects. - Great 401(k) match (100% up to 6%) and the other benefits are solid too. - There is a great culture of eating lunch together in the break room instead of individually at desks. People order lunch through an online system with rotating restaurants, and it really creates a sense of community. - The requisite free drinks, snacks, and beer.

Cons

The organization is very flat and has grown quickly, so it can be challenging at first to get oriented. Too a certain extent you're expected to find your own way.

Pros

Lots of growth and varied projects so there are ample opportunities to work on new thing. Management works hard to have it be a comfortable / nice place to work. CEO emails everyone every week with an update on what the goals are, how the sales are going, etc.

Cons

It's sort of a mid-size company with small company structure, which is good in most ways, but also means there isn't formal training or (real) HR yet. You can get what you want or need in terms of training or career growth but you need to know what you need and make it happen rather than have it be part of your structure/plan.
