Pros

- 5000 Airmiles every year and each 5th year of employment awarded 20,000 Airmiles. - Perks within the Travel Industry - RRSP company matches up to 3%.

Cons

They hardly have any Bilingual agents and being Bilingual its very difficult to get time off..which becomes very stressful!! Also French customers wait long time to get through and as a result give poor scores for customer service survey and this is not fair to the agent. Travel agents have no say...they must do as they say, and there is change all the time... must follow or your out the door...You are being watched all the time even working from home....what time you go to the washroom, eat, everything is programmed and timed.....You can not be a minute late.....Use to be a great company but the management is very bad. I heard even managers or supervisor are afraid to talk.... They are now moving from downtown Toronto to Mississauga which can be difficult if you don't drive!!

Pros

- Interesting problems to solve - Flexible work / remote

Cons

- HR operates like the mob …tell you one thing and do the opposite (repeatedly) - significant clients wised up and left program - business badly needs transformation into new revenue models but business too big and slow to pivot

Pros

It’s an amazing company with a great culture and wonderful people to work with

Cons

The leadership team is terrible. Inexperienced, without any vision or value to add. Lack of alignment between business and technology is tearing the team apart.

Thank you for your review. You are right, we have an incredible culture at AIR MILES due to the collaboration, dedication, and fun that our teams bring to work every day. In regards to your comments on management, we know that good leaders not only contribute to our growth and success but also drive innovation and create a positive work environment. As such, we consistently invest in ongoing training and development for all of our leaders. Last year we took steps to implement Leadership Key Performance Objectives to measure leadership effectiveness along with a leadership survey to solicit Associate feedback regarding leadership and to ensure we continue to learn as an organization. We know that developing our people is critical for increasing engagement, fostering our culture and enhancing performance, which in turn drives our results and growth as an organization. The Leadership across the organization, including technology and other areas of the business, are working together towards achieving our shared vision of being Canada’s best Loyalty Program. We encourage you to voice your concerns internally to your Leaders and Managers, and allow us to address this lack of alignment to continue to make AIR MILES a great experience for our Associates and externally. Thank you again for leaving a review; I appreciate your honest feedback. Dimitri Benak VP, People and Culture
