there are no longer any good reasons to work for this company if it were not for the senority system the majority would have already quit :(

Cons

the management team treats their employees with complete contempt they are failures at running a sucessful airline and they are theives the employees continue to work under contracts which provided for paycuts in order to avoid bankruptcy. the management team takes huge bonuses while the airline fails in every competitve measure known in the industry
