Flight attendant

Pros

Experiencing Traveling and (personal) flight benefits meeting new people. Getting to see the world and making new friends. That’s really it

Cons

Management is very bad. Favoritism plays a big role in your employment, Crew Sceduling forgets about you any destination you’re at, this company lies like a rug. Upper management only cares about the money in their pocket. Your hourly wage is not enough for your cost of living. They’ll Use you until their needs are fulfilled and then throw you to the side like swamp meat. Credit cards are constantly declining when it comes to flight attendant housing outside their base. Seniority in this company means everything.

Very Diverse Work But Let Down By Management

Pilot

Business outlook

Pros

This truly could be be an absolute 'Gem' of a place to work for as the very diverse nature of the Charter flying was both stimulating and rewarding as a pilot. Jump seat privileges, however, no really family or buddy passes since one never really flew a consistent route. Great team 'spirit' when with the crew to get the job done right despite management constantly trying to derail you. A great place to gain experience and be around a B737 albeit the older generation [This is changing with the take-over with a few NG 800 series aircraft]

Cons

Poor management decisions lead to big financial implications which affected everyone's quality of life. There were numerous pay cuts over my time to correct for the poor decision making, but to their credit every pay check went through. Poor scheduling with a lot of errors, where the onus is on you. With management you are either their 'blue eyed prodigal child' or the 'rebellious step child' depending upon what and how you cross their path. At the time I was there, low pay and very tough to make ends meet.

Pros

I like that the atmosphere is one that harbors great people and you feel like family. It is a smaller company so you feel like you are working with your life long friends and family.

Cons

The hiring process should be a lot more selected. Some individuals need to be screened more throughly before becoming a flight attendant. Not for safety, but for hidden agendas by concealing if they are really "people persons."
