Pros

Flight benefits, Flight Attendants are an educated, interesting and resourceful group

Cons

Where do I begin? As an employee of over 20 years, I earn less than I did 15 years ago. The upper execs have taken around 30% of our salary while they pocket millions from the billions AA is earning. Morale is at an all time low, which makes it difficult to go above and beyond our duties as we have in the past. We hoped that the merger would bring about positive changes, but sadly, more has been taken away and our new CEO has devalued our work group and stated that we do not contribute to daily profits. Wow. That's quite a statement to your front line employees. The future is not looking bright. I do not recommend this company.

Pros

People, 401k match, flight benefits

Cons

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.
