B & G information (Gillette, Sheridan: homes, pros and cons, living)

[jakeandkristalhoof]

My husband is looking at a job with B&G in their new Avionics department. He has 5 years experince with this exact job in the Navy. And what worries us is the start pay is $16.00. We currently live in Eastern Oregon, so we don't have a way to know what the company is like, if they are great to their employees, if they give raises ect. We would be moving around the Greybull area. Any info would greatly help. Thank you

Was your husband an AT? The company I work for is looking for I&E techs (Instrumentation & Electronics) and I think they start those guys around $24/hr. The company is out of Gillette. Cost of living may be higher there, but finding housing is getting easier. More homes on the market now than years past.

Yes he was. Can you tell me how to get more info on the job? Where to go to apply? Do you live in Gillette? If so how do you like it? Thank you so much for taking the time to help us!

I work in Gillette and Sheridan, but live in Buffalo. Gillette is much different from the other two. It has its pros and cons, just depends on what you want in a hometown.

I'll shoot you a PM with the info on the company.
