Pros

Senior management some of the best in the business. Not very likely to furlough large amount of employees. Good hiring screening process provides great coworkers. Management keeps employees in the loop, looks for feedback.

Cons

Poverty wage starting pay that tops out early. Management will do whatever necessary to save a dime, including sacrificing employee morale. Expensive health insurance and 401(k) fees. Lazy and uninformed HR department never responds to inquiries. Headquarters employees will not answer phone calls. Culture of fear instilled by management.

Pros

Travel benefits on American, United, Delta, jumpseat agreements with other carriers and ID travel on most other airlines including international carriers. Great starting experience and introduction to working in aviation.

Cons

Will hire just about anyone, were hiring by video interviews alone at one time, so quality of people varied. Notorious for base closures, got displaced at least 5 times due to base closures. All bases in Midwest and northeast. In the past most bases were in outstations and noncommutable. Low pay.
