I learned lot of things at this place when I was working as a Intern. Meeting with Managers and design Engineers was a great part for Brain Storming. I was assign a task to improve a design process of a product development program. During the first day of work I felt so good when the manager of our department joined with me for the lunch.

Interesting place to learn an impressively complex industry

I worked for 18 yrs,the whole time I was depressed,very much discriminated from the French Canadian colleagues,The management and the HR were doing nothing to improve the situation.
I was harassed constantly from my boss,abuse verbally,bullied....total mess.
You constantly have to look over your shoulder because you never know who is going to back stub – more... you.
We were not allowed to take our sick days and if we had to take them we had to speak with the boss.
We were observed from the boss how long we talk on the phone.
I was so much diminished in this company that I hate them all.
I know allot of other people that are feeling this way and their life is being totally distorted because of the constant difficult conditions we were faced for so long. – less

This is a great company to work for. Job security is great and benefits are out of this world. If you have an opportunity to work for them, keep it. Although, the pay is not so great, but the benefits talks for itself and time off you can accrue.

The morning would start by delivering parts to the production area then load and unload trucks most of the day. Some computer work.

Management was great enjoyed the high paced work environment kept me motivated.

I have learned how to multitask and also have learned organizational skills

This job is an amazing place to start of your career in the aerospace industry, it is a brillient place to serve your time and to get a foot into other companies that do the same type of work

It's apparent that Flexjet is a nonprofit organization of bombardier. Its poor leadership will keep it that way. Parent company Bombardier has conducted annual employee surveys that show the problems clearly, but action is never taken to rectify them in over four years. No ability to communicate effectively. No one is able to lead teams or groups in – more... one clear conscience direction. Little to no opportunity in Flexjet. You will be forced to go somewhere else for advancement. I have seen managers give negative references to other employers looking to hire former employees. that is the negative. The positive is good health care, pay, and 401k. – less

If your looking for an aircraft Bombardier is the place to buy one. The work force takes great pride in putting out a exceptional product. The hardest part of the job is that engineering can be slow in getting the information needed to complete the job. Making the customer happy.

After working for this company for eight years, I noticed a culture of imbalance of priorities that was very disturbing to me. Supervisors were placing unfair and impractical objectives on their employees with the expectation of completion with unrealistic time frames. If I had any illusions as to how they did business before I was employed there, I – more... have none at all now. I would not recommend anyone seeking employment at the Tucson facility. – less

Great company to work for with potential to grow. The most enjoyable part of the job was the training possibilities.

Very fast paced and busy. I learned more about flight certification efforts. The workers were very dedicated. There is a good feeling, getting new aircraft certifications.

On a typical day, answered customer calls, worked with Lotus Notes to get orders that customer placed, tracked customer orders and informed customers. Quiet environment.

I worked here for 2 years as a temp and then was fired claiming a " quality issue" no write up no evaluation, But there were people hired on that couldn't read a measuring tape or even read for a matter of fact

enjoyed challenging work and working with knowledgable colleagues and managers

Met all trains upon arrival at GLC and talked with all staff, repairing and reporting any faults they informed me of,or I found walking through the sets. Travelled up and down west and east coast, repairing,fault finding and monitoring on the move. Learnt more extensive electrical skills as was required of the job. Self managed 95% of the time, rarely – more... had any involvement from my management. Enjoyed working with all staff I encountered, be they Train drivers/managers, cleaners or platform staff, and had good working relationships with all of them, including depot staff when attending on nightshifts to undergo heavy maintenance. Enjoyed all aspects of the work, the hardest part was probably having to deal with drunk/awkward passengers. The most enjoyable part was that every day was different, working with different staff or travelling to somewhere new, and that one day you could be fixing a coffee machine, the next you could be attending a failed train. The benefits that went with the job, such as the roster with 11 days off every 3 weeks was also a huge plus, enabling me lots of time with my young family. Plus being able to ride to work on a push bike has kept me fit for the last 5 years. Just a shame to be made redundant, from a job I was very good at, by management that spent no time at all with me, and didnt take customer (train operators) satisfaction into consideration. – less
