Pros

Close to family and the work environment is pleasant. The pay is fair.

Cons

There is a great deal of micromanagement. "CanJet Material" is a phrase commonly used to describe employees that easily sacrifice home life for work. Even then, being on call 24/7 doesn't make you a respected employee. There's an air of "good-old-boys club" that seeps through everything.

Advice to Senior Management

Listen more to your employees. They have been with you through thin and thinner. Reward them with respect. Be more flexible and trust your long-time employees to make good decisions. Try to see that happy employees are more productive employees.
