Pros
Working Environment. This is a very collaborative environment. I work in Engineering and never feel micro-managed. In fact, I look for my manager about as much as he looks for me. The management here at Greenpoint is a Technical management. I think that accounts for the ratio. Although my boss is the department manager, he also collaborates on design, modelling issues, materials, as well as scheduling. I think this team environment working model fits the product very well. Greenpoint is an excellent facility. Engineering uses all of the latest tools and equipement. Greenpoint is fun and active. Our department manager goes to the same gym that I go to. If I don't show up he 'micro manages' me, and asks where I've been. I love it! We work hard and play hard. I'm a contractor. I've contracted at many of the Aerospace companies in North America. Greenpoint is second to none. I've been treated very well. I 've seen the us v. them mentality at other companies. It is not here. Of course the location is great. I moved a half mile from the facility and walk to work everyday. It's scenic, and safe.
Cons
I don't know if it's a con, but growth is an issue. I think it's a good problem. We are busy. Some standards are being fine tuned. I think this is true of any company this size.
