   I have been working at Airline Transport Professionals as a contractor
   Pros
   Planes are maintained properly and the curriculum is spelled out for you.
   Cons
   ATP pays far less than minimum wage but gives the illusion that its possible to make more by offering a sliding scale income- inferring that instructors choose not to fly 30 hours per pay period and ignoring the plane and student shortages and weather issues that keep us grounded.
   Advice to Management
   Pay your full-time employees, excuse me, “independent contractors,” enough to pay rent and eat. Period. Yelp, Username: Unknown

   Pros
   Above average pay for the location. Excellent benefits (health, 401k, vision, dental and free life insurance) are all VERY affordable. PLENTY of vacation time (roughly 2hrs pto earned per week). They put the profit back into the company. Unexpected raises, holiday bonuses, extra paid holidays, top notch shop equipment, etc. Work environment is very clean and organized. There is plenty of opportunity to lead and to le…

   Nothing major comes to mind. ATP is a surprisingly LARGE company with a very short chain of command. This is good in many ways, but can be unnerving in others. On one hand, there is ZERO micromanagement and BIG decisions happen very quickly. On the other, if someone screws up in one maintenance location, a blanket policy is usually put in place company wide. This can be frustrating and feel a little disrespectful, but is necessary for.such a lean company to ensure that everyone is on the same page. Upper management offers little to no praise for a job well done and relies on local management to keep the gears turning. So, no news is usually good news. However, if your location starts slipping and your manager doesn’t catch it, upper management can and will put the fear of God into you. Take that how you want. I don’t mind it, but some can’t handle it.

   Finding a way to open a line of communication between all maintenance managers would serve this company well. Standardizing our maintenance efforts would as well. Yelp, Username: Watson
