Pros

Where else can you say you work for an OEM that makes products for the largest corporations, royalty, celebrities (including founders of famous companies)? Where else can you get inside a private jet and experience what normally multi-millionaires and billionaires experience? Pay is unmatched. Only company where they pay engineers properly (with respect to cost of living). Benefits are very competitive too. They host some really good events for the employees and sometimes their families.

Cons

Sales and upper management fail to understand that quality can NEVER be rushed. This goes against everything the corporation stands for. The insane schedule has created sizeable attrition. There is also inconsistency in design and drafting standards and quality. This has to be improved upon. Be a little more flexible with remote work and allow select employees to print documents from home as they are sometimes needed to do more complex designs/checks. Security is important, but with or without a printer, a bad element can steal information. Hire the right people with a proper background screening and this won’t happen.

Pros

-Work in an air conditioned hangar! -All the tools and support needed to do the job -Excellent training available -Good safety culture -Fairly easy work -Lots of opportunities to grow

Cons

Big corporate politics at times. Some people just love to point fingers. Rules that are very excessive due to incompetence, instead of just firing morons.

Pros

Gulfstream is a good company, I would come back to it. Can be a fantastic work life balance. PTO and benefits are decent. Can be an excellent career builder if you have connections and play your cards right. They can pay for your masters. Self-starters are rewarded and recognized,

Cons

-Ultimately, your experience heavily depends on your specific group—and some can be incredibly profane and toxic. If you are trying to implement an improvement but it doesn't agree with leadership, you can be harassed. -You might find yourself fourth in a long line for a position that only opens once a year; many jobs already have a person picked before they are ever posted. This isn't new information.
