Pros

Recognized leader in the aviation world. Good pay, average benefits

Cons

Aviall transitioned away from long established senior management in mid 2012, then most of the former middle management were run off. Went from a nice place to work, to a sweat shop in just 6 months. SAP conversion is a disaster, it's nearly ruined the company. Sales in the toilet, the customers hate us. Management could care less about employees, they literally want you to work until you drop. Many employees are sick from stress & want out.

Pros

-Great people and positive working environment -Safety is the number one priority -Everyone pitches in and there’s a great sense of community -Almost guaranteed longevity with the company -Great starting pay -Great management with leadership promotion from within

Cons

Not many. Maybe give contractors more opportunities for advancement? Or offer W2 employment guarantees after 1 year of contracting? I was there for 5, I loved being there but as a contractor I would have been fine with working directly for the company after a length of time. Because of the lengthy Boeing acquisition there were growing pains, unnecessary department shake ups and general changes that caused confusion and anxiety about potential layoffs during department restricting before covid, but exasperated in 2020.
