With perks like free meals, flight lessons, and on-site clinics, the electric aviation giant outpaces struggling local firms like Green Mountain Avionics and J&M Avionics. While Beta claims its expansion will eventually boost the state’s aerospace talent pipeline through partnerships with schools, current owners face painful realities: losing experienced staff, struggling to train new hires, and battling a labor market that favors deep-pocketed newcomers. The cost of staying afloat is mounting, and for many, the future looks uncertain. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
