Pros
Air New Zealand drives and delivers an exceptional people culture and ensures the company values and purpose are at the forefront of the strategy across the global markets. I am very proud to work for a business who focuses on developing leaders and offering career development opportunities.
Cons
Communication between business units can be challenging due to size of the business.

Pros
Fast paced industry, good for recent grads
Cons
Bell curve grading system means silos are hard to breakdown, clicky culture, managers don't know how to manage, work life balance is non-existent. HR stuck in the 80's. Little diversity in exec positions, which is becoming an embarrassment to the company. Little opportunity to move up. Benefits are overrated, pay is below market.
Advice to Management
Skill up, and move on.

Pros
Its a very good company to work if you are a permanent employee. The career plan is large and they have lots of opportunity to grow. Staff travel is one of the best perks, with some really good deals to travel around the globe for you and your family.
Cons
Not recommended if you are a contractor. You won't have staff travel, which makes the job become intense for almost nothing in exchange. You have to learn A LOT of information, its about 4 months training, the shift work is horrible and the wage is not high.
