All About the Company - Profits First, People Last
Worst company I ever worked for! Horrible! So glad I am no longer there! No support, no one knew what I did for my job, no boss interaction, no thank you or appreciation EVER. Awful culture! Stay away!!!!

no good place to be, NOT in Wichita
Best to find another place to work, rather than Bombardier SITE in Wichita. .
BA just doesn't think of developing this site. It is a necessary evil in Bombardier's Management, to have location for Flight testing and Nice weather for Test Airplanes to exist in.
ProsNice safe town to live in
ConsThe Management, work life balance and poor job security

Great place to work
I loved working at Learjet but due to the economic issues within the aerospace industry, I was laid off in January 2014 after 18 years of employment.

Good benefits and pay
Typical aircraft mfg. Long hours and overtime, constantly subject to layoffs or employee reductions. Headquarters are in Canada. Some good leadership. Some good employees. Although a union shop not that difficult of an environment to work in.

Plenty of responsibility and challenging mental growth potential in the field of aircraft manufacturing processes.
I Performed organizational-level maintenance on avionics communication and navigation systems and modified new aircraft with modern systems. I lead a team of 15 personnel to complete each aircraft with very high standards. I flew with the flight crew during flight tests to ensure proper function and create maintenance actions required, this was very enjoyable. Yet the hours were very long.
ProsAchievment was very high with a great sense of accomplishement.
ConsThe manufacturing processes were moved back to Canada and operations ceased here in Tucson.

Ambiente de trabajo competitivo
Bombardier Transportation es una empresa que tiene las más altas prestaciones sin tope, el único detalle es que no da planta por parte de la empresa solo contratos de uno a tres meses y así hasta que toman la decisión de darte de baja.
ProsNo dan contrato indeterminado
ConsSe apegan mucho q las normas de seguridad

Horrible
Terrible company. Just dying slowly and painfully. It is very clear when you work here to see why this company went from having it all to nothing. Too many managers with no clue what they are doing. Everyone is there to suck money and either leave or get fired. No loyalty, no motivation, no team work. Worst environment to spend 40 hours (or even more for free cause no overtime) of your precious week.

Busy Work Environment
Sense of community among staff, though there was little sense of urgency as a result of clashes between expectations from management and union protections.
