Pros

It's an atmosphere of constant change so you will get good experience, but that comes at a high price.

Cons

The high price: long hours for pay below the market, management that is poorly educated - many of the old timers are airline catering veterans that maybe graduated from high school, if you don't have airline catering exp. it is hard to get ahead, inadequate systems, no ability to make decisions as this is tightly controlled at the top. It can be absolute chaos on the floor as the bottom line is to get the flights out on time. They talk about recognition and training, but it is lip service. This place crushes your soul.

Pros

Good people who want to come to work and have pride in their work.

Cons

Moral is low. Management needs to practice what it preaches. They say what you want to hear but do not do it. This causes employees to resent company and not be willing to go the extra mile to make it a great company.
