Pros

Free travel is the best perk

Cons

The Talent department is thinning out again. Upper Management has no clue how to run the department, and with recent Director departure, it is being run into the ground! There is no upward mobility, and the ones in Manager roles are holding on tight to their jobs in fear of millennials outshining them. You need to be involved in projects to get noticed in the group, and if you aren't, you basically don't exist. Much of the back-end work is outsourced to a call center, leaving the internal team relying on them to slowly get things done. The entire process should be internalized without a 3rd party, so that the team can actually get things done correctly.

People, 401k match, flight benefits

Low Pay for Tech, flight benefits for standby are now harder to use. Lots of offshoring. Company does not seem to know where to go. Lowest of the totem pole for airlines.
