For the second year in a row, FlightSafety International has been named one of Forbes’ “best mid-sized employers.” It is one of 500 companies with more than 1000 employees to be named, and just one of eight in the aerospace and defense industry to receive this accolade.
“We are pleased and honored that FlightSafety has been named by Forbes as one of America’s best mid-size employers again this year,” said co-CEOs David Davenport and Ray Johns. “This is directly attributable to our focus on teammates and our culture of quality and customer service. We are committed to provide a positive work environment and family atmosphere that recognizes and rewards achievements, offers opportunities for advancement, and encourages open communication.”
The Forbes survey asks employees if they would recommend their company to friends and family. FlightSafety also said that “when respondents were asked to recommend and evaluate other organizations in their industry, FlightSafety was more positively evaluated than 80% of all companies on the list.”
Topping the Forbes list for 2019 is TripAdvisor, which has 1646 employees. El Segundo, California-based R&D firm The Aerospace Corporation, with 4000 employees, was the top-ranking mid-sized company in the aerospace and defense category. FlightSafety was number 461 on the overall list.
