I enjoy working at AEVEX. The overall culture and mission/customer focus is enjoyable. Don't lose that.

Briefly describe your overall experience at your company

Overall AEVEX has been a great place to work.

Briefly describe your overall experience at your company

It was a great ride, but if it continues to loose sight of my customers, I'll leave. It's heartbreaking honestly.

Briefly describe your overall experience at your company

I've watched several things I value at AEVEX decline over the last couple of years. Don't like the direction the company seems to be going.

What do you like best about the leadership team?

They instill a great culture in AEVEX

What makes you most happy at work?

Providing a valuable service to our customers.

What do you like best about the leadership team?

The flexibility for me to work from home.

What are some of the best things about your team?

They are generally loyal to AEVEX and highly qualified.

What are some of the best things about your team?

My team is generally all highly motivated and productive professionals.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

The mission focused vision is definitely leading the industry today.

What makes you most happy at work?

Having the ability to work remotely and having a good team.

What are some of the best things about your team?

Our team is mission focused. We haven't lost that valuable perspective.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

In the past, I've been trusted to run my program...not so much anymore.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

AEVEX has a family environment that brings most of the employees together and keeps them loyal.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

I feel like AEVEX has strayed from the culture I signed up to and what we used to be.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

The "merit" system for raises is broken. We've lost and will continue to lose top talent unless this is resolved.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

We have some of the best folks in the industry focused on customers and the mission. Most are experts in their field and overall good citizens.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

I think our company and the growt is at a critical phase. The culture is degrading and we're continuously focused on the dollars at loyal employees expense.

What is the best part about your compensation package?

AEVEX's compensation package is just OK. It definitely is not an industry leader. 401K matches are low for the industry. I think AEVEX could do better in this area.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

I'm at the top of my "payband", but my salary has stagnated. That really diminishes AEVEX's position each year to keep me from a financial perspective. Other companies haven't stagnated for a position like mine.

What do you like best about the leadership team?

Overall they are great people, patriots, and care about customers. But I think we've lost focus on supporting existing customer base and focus on new business at the expense of the customers that provided AEVEX the past performance to expand.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

I know I'm not an average performer, yet my pay hasn't increased accordingly. In 6.5 years of AEVEX employment, my raises significantly lags our proposed/approved excalation rates, COLA, and other measures of economic growth. That show our "merit" based compensation plan is broken; I'm not valued.

What are some of the best things about your team?

Team is highly professional and customer/mission focused. We are recognized as the standard in what we do. Others try to emulate us to failing results. However, support from AEVEX engineering and software has been flailing and needs to be addressed to become existing customer focused again.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

1) Several peers have higher increases in pay or promotions 2) Pay lags industry increases 3) My pay has lagged COLA...I know, we don't do COLA raises. So, that tells me that I'm not even performing average. 4) My program have increased 4X in revenue, my customers are happy, I'm not.
