Pros

Easy job if you want to work Pay is okay

Cons

GM treats people based off her mood, you can tell when she’s in a bad mood very easily. She takes it out on her employees. I feel bad for the ASMs. They seem stressed out a lot. Corporate constantly has their hands in everything which makes it worse Latest, we ran out of employee drinking water and they don’t care They don’t treat their associates humanely
