Bench Tech - Anonymous employee Flight Systems Electronics Group Employee Review

Great stress free, laid back company. Work is somewhat repetitive but can be fun thought provoking (10% of the time)

Pay is not competitive with similar local positions. Lack thereof training & adequate documentation, associates held unaccountable for negative trends. No data analysis happening on the line.

The people were very friendly and compensation was alright. Management is concerned about making a full line of products to offer their customers.

Management didn't do a great job of finances and desperately hopped on board the Continuous Improvement movement too late and for the wrong reasons. I think there's a lot of potential at Flight and perhaps now they're figuring out how to run a business that sells into the aftermarket. Working there looks like working in a sweatshop from 150 years ago. A little effort towards aesthetics goes a long way. I didn't feel like I was given the opportunity to help them as much as I wanted to. I felt I was not allowed to exercise talents that I had beyond engineering (e.g., supply chain, quality, etc.) I also felt like the engineers WERE given the burdensome task of doing market research without some of the proper tools.
