    2026-02-28T18:23:36.877

    Pros: Moog has a great culture. I have worked for Moog for 30 years and it has always seemed like a large family.

    Cons: No any cons that I can think of

  • Horrible Company to Start a Career At
    2026-02-26T09:28:39.800

    Pros: Only pro was that the job was easy and didn't demand frequent overtime. Stock is performing well (go figure).

    Cons: Very high turnover and low morale - over 50% lost from my department with no backfill in the 2.5 years I worked there. Constant change and cuts in benefits. Poorly defined career architecture. No opportunities for career advancement or trust for younger engineers to take on more responsibility. Old boy's club, favoritism with nepotism in internal hires and promotions. Middle managers are unhappy and don't appear like they want to be in their positions. Poor benefits compared to industry, very low salaries, totally uncompetitive in LA and Denver areas. Poor reputation with aerospace prime customers. Way behind industry in terms of diversity (read: lots of older white men, few women and people of color in salaried roles). Soulless culture, very few happy office workers, everyone looks dead inside.

Frequently asked questions about manufacturing engineering manager jobs

What is a ghost job?

A ghost job is a posting for a role the company isn't actively hiring for. Some stay up after the company fills the role. Others collect resumes for an opening that may never come.

You spend an evening tailoring an application, and nobody on the other side is looking for you.

What do manufacturing engineering manager jobs pay?

Across the postings here that list pay, the median is about $144,000 a year. About 5 in 10 of these postings list a pay range; the rest show an estimate, marked as one.

How many manufacturing engineering manager jobs are there?

At our last count there were about 110 open postings from 42 employers. The list on this page is live, so the count above it is the current one.

How does Enhancv spot a ghost job?

Every posting goes through five checks: how long it has been up, whether a salary is posted, what employees say about the company, how specific the description is and whether it lists real requirements. Each job shows the checks it passed and the ones it didn't.

How fresh are the job postings?

Enhancv checks postings every hour, and every job shows how long ago it went up. Most hires happen within 30 days of posting. A listing that's been open for two months raises its ghost job risk.
