Vantaggi
The Aerospace Industry is interesting and one can learn a lot by all the hats one needs to put on throughout each day. A lot of different programs, so you don't have to get bored by one program or specific product year after year.
Svantaggi
Senior/Executive Management works in tune with senior executive management and seldom communicates with anyone lower than a Director. They do not see the smoking screens and lies that are put out by their direct reports. They are poor at giving praise or constructive feedback, but expect a higher standard from others. They protect protect their own groups to protect themselves with anger and vigor instead of truly improving. They work in their own silo, and fight among each other. Everyone I worked with felt the senior manager in charge of the facility was winging it, and didn't really care. Saw the person lie more than tell the truth. Just because someone speaks well in a meeting, doesn't mean they are managing correctly. In the end, they don't know the true health of a facility because they are not engaged. Biggest problem is their ego thinks they do know.
