Pros

The range and variety of work / projects was always challenging. A very dynamic competitive industry that kept things interesting.

Cons

A wishy washy senior management team that constantly shifted direction and ignored common financial sense in spite of that fact that the CEO had previously run the acquired company.

Pros

The best flight benefits in the industry by far; decent medical benefits; stock option benefits are ok

Cons

From the Station Manager level and above, overt favoritism and blatant, shady unethical behaviors deject all layers of leadership and trickles down to frontline employees who absolutely have no respect nor trust for local and corporate senior management. Leaders who are personal favorites of the the Station Manager are protected and allowed to disrespect employees. Communication is non-existant and purposely vague or misleading to misguide employees. Pitting those who are favored against those who are not is common so to set up certain employees for failure. HR is in the pocket of corporate management and is an ineffective figure head unwilling to confront employee concerns and hold poor managers accountable for holding positions they never were qualified to receive in the first place.
