Pros

I really appreciate how I am treated. Delta also has high regard for helping others in the communities it serves. Delta encourages employee participation in a lot of good causes. The benefits are great, the leadership smart and open. This is not an easy industry to be in and I think the management at Delta does a great job of overcoming the challenges inherent in this industry. I am treated well and given the flexibility I sometimes need. The travel is a super perk and the people in my group are intelligent and driven.

Cons

There is very little diversity at the VP- level and very few opportunities for advancement anywhere except at very low levels. The only place I've seen promotions is in the HR department - they seem to have limitless funding for high-priced contractors and projects. There is also a lot of room for improvement and consolidation as far as work distribution. Some policies are not applied fairly across the board, like work from home within the same department varies from manager to manager. It is as though a manager's personal preference can trump a company policy for similar jobs that could be done from home.

Pros

Awesome company to work for! Fun work environment, cares about employees, great uniforms, competitive pay, just an awesome company to work for! They are very flexible, you can live anywhere in the world you want, as long as your able to get to work when you need to be there!

Cons

At the end of the day, it is a very large corporation. So it is very easy to become just a "number" in the company. The flight attendant group is not unionized, so rules can change very often. Make sure your time management is impeccable, because you cannot be late for work AT ALL, and there aren't many acceptable excuses, even rain is not an excuse.

Thank you for your review and recommendation of Delta. We work hard every day to make Delta a great place to work; it’s nice to hear how much you enjoy our company and our work environment. Our people and our culture are our most important competitive advantages and the direct relationship we have enjoyed with our flight attendants has served our people, our customers and our company very well. To that end, we have a strong open door policy that enables any employee to go directly to a leader with any concerns, and we have hundreds of flight attendants who are actively engaged in our business, providing feedback and working on solutions for their colleagues and our customers. At Delta, a consistent, reliable operation is one of the reasons our top customers come back to fly with us time and again. That makes employee reliability – being on time, every day, for your shift or your flight – especially important. We agree that having a fundamental understanding of the flight attendant role is important for our field leaders, and we also value diversity at all levels of the company. That’s why so many of our field leaders are flight attendant qualified and many still fly when their schedules allow. We appreciate your feedback and will be sharing it with our In-Flight team. –Wendy, Talent Acquisition Team
