Pros

1. Incredible work-life balance. The team is incredibly collaborative and there to help out. There are plenty of opportunities to take ownership and step in where you would like to make decisions backed by data. Everyone understands life outside of work is real and is not just accommodating to it but encouraging prioritizing that. 2. The autonomy given to employees to do their job as they see fit is incredible. 3. Travel benefits. I went to London last weekend to watch a soccer game for the cost of taxes.

Cons

1. Corporate red tape. For being under the American Airlines umbrella, I would've assumed we would be more established. It feels like a startup in some ways with the red tape and scissors being held by American. This just slows things down. 2. Vacation days lag behind the market. Other companies have 4-5 weeks or unlimited PTO. For a company that runs on business travel and vacations, I would've thought that the emphasis on the need to vacation would be higher as you get 10 days to start + 2 jetaway days (floating holidays) + 4 days of personal time (meant for appts and sick days). 3. Salary expectations not met. However the room for growth within the company counters this.

Pros

Indoc, systems, SIPS, and Sims have all been amazing. I always knew what I was supposed to be studying. The instructors were eager and willing to help. I felt prepared going into and successfully completing each stage.

Cons

The only qualm I have is the delay starting IOE after LOE. It’s been about three weeks since I’ve completed LOE and almost no one in my class has gotten a trip yet. I understand we’re trying to get more LCA help, I’m just studying what I can but still feel like I’m losing proficiency.

Thank you for your feedback and for being part of the PSA team. We’re glad to hear your training experience—from Indoc through Sims—has been positive and that you felt supported and prepared throughout each stage. We understand how important timely IOE scheduling is for maintaining proficiency. Your feedback will be shared with leadership as we continue working to improve scheduling and better support our pilots.
