Pros

The instructors and worker level people are great.

Cons

Management is a revolving door. Had 6 senior level managers in 3 years. Executive management are the worst kind of people, managing by emotion. When you are told to not look the President in the eye or you could be fired you immediately realize you are working for power hungry dictators and the bottom line is the only thing that counts. The company is a sinking ship being ran into the ground by people who had/have no concept of keeping up with the times and modernization of the company. Without all the big government contracts coming in this place will shut its doors within a year. Pay or promotion.., don’t even think about a pay raise or promotion unless you are drinking buddies with the President. You will be told you signed your contract and if you don’t like it there is the door. It doesn’t matter how much work they pile on you the expectation is to do what you’re told or you’ll be fired. Many people are working way outside of what they are paid for or their job description states. You will also get to deal with the multiple layoffs per year to lower overhead because they are hemorrhaging like an arterial bleed. Last but not least best case scenario is you are treated as a number and just do your job but more than likely you’ll be assigned “extra duties” that probably closely resemble what your managers had to do before being laid off. Avoid the company at all costs.

Pros

Great company and great people. Good pay for instructors.

Cons

Work can be really slow and being a part time or casual, you won’t get much work. Does not pay travel expenses unless really busy. Gives meal card for on site chow hall instead of receiving per diem.
