Any time that FLS is mentioned on PPRuNe, it seems to be mandatory to be derogatory. Just for the record, FLS does have a lot of very good points, a hell of a lot of really good people, we do have fun very frequently - yes, even the engineers (I have seen them laughing and heard them whistling) The problems that face FLS are by no means unique to FLS. The problems may be solved by restructuring, or take-over or merger or by changing management policies and/or teams but at the end of the day the company is about the People. Moan as much as you feel inclined to but be grateful for the friendship of your colleagues.
