American Airlines Reviews

Pros

Incredible company to work for.

Cons

Nothing to say against them

Pros

-Flexible schedules - Have 14 days vacation yearly, plus 4 holidays, 2 of which can be rolled to the next year - work 5 days straight, 2 days off - 3 different 8 hour shifts, which you can trade with other people to get more days off

Cons

- management is controlling - you do your job and follow the contract, but the boss's will give into what the flight attendants want (going against what the contract states) and making you look like you don't know your job, but you were following the rules - flight attendants are not held accountable for anything that they say on the phone. (1 FA called a person on the phone the N word and kept their job with no consequences) - There are rules made where FA's are not allowed to call our names out on social media, fellow co-workers got screenshots on the FA's FB group that they had done so and were dragging their names through the mud nothing was done. - A fellow co-worker(white lady) in the department also got away with saying racial slurs and kept her job even though she constantly harassed people at work. Management of course also did nothing. - they don't hold employees accountable for their mistakes, but always blame the next shift for not cleaning up after the previous shift. - management always make the hard workers work harder, while the ones who never know how to do the basic day to day tasks get a free pass every time. - you can be a hard worker who comes in everyday (a lot of people noshow and get a pass), be on time (they gave incentives to bribe people to come in on time), never call in sick and they will fire you, before they ever fire the lazy ones who never do anything, don't know anything , and always make big mistakes.

Pros

Great people and benefits plus air travel ability

Cons

Cutthroat favoritism and possible racism in upper management allows department heads and above to easily replace lower managers with their friends / favorite colleagues. Job security is lost when moving to the management team. CSM salaries are not equivalent to the workload or expectations set upon them.

Pros

Great benefits, great pay, and amazing coworkers

Cons

Bad management. Promotes friends and suck ups rather than people who do well.
