Dallas, TX

Current Employee – been working at Spirit Airlines full-time for less than a year

ProsTravel
Meeting a variety of people

ConsWorking constantly, Unhappy employees, Careless management

Advice to Senior ManagementFocus on customer service FIRST and FOREMOST, and hire/recruit more people to work because that is the problem that Spirit is currently facing. The lack of people working creates a problem for current employees and customers.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

Fort Lauderdale, FL

Former Employee – worked at Spirit Airlines full-time for more than 3 years

ProsThere is a lot of growth in this company and career advancements.

ConsEmployees are not paid fairly for the amount of work and responsibility that is performed.

Advice to Senior ManagementThe culture and values at this company remain a mystery. There is so much potential in this company, but it all starts by treating the employees with respect. Motivation through fear is not a productive way to run a company.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

Miramar, FL

Current Employee – been working at Spirit Airlines

ProsA maverick in the industry - and still in (slow) growth mode.

ConsLimited information sharing from management.
Ultra-low cost mentality trickles down to employee benefits and rewards.

Advice to Senior ManagementCommunicate with employees - it's not right to find out important information from news sources online.

Miramar, FL

Current Employee – been working at Spirit Airlines

ProsIt is a dynamic company that seems to constantly be in change. It is a fast paced environment where it is always good to see more an new things. Forget about getting promoted though. They very rarely promote from within.

ConsThere are constantly reductions in force. The promotions from within are always tolken or miniscule. They are always brining in people from the outside rather than developing people from within.

Advice to Senior ManagementStop re-inventing the airline and move forward with one model.

Current Employee – been working at Spirit Airlines

Prosbelieve that was a company with big future and positions to grew up. But things are very unusual over there

ConsPeople and supervisors don't care about you, they don't help you, they don't try to be honest with you and a lot more

Advice to Senior ManagementThey have to honor the people who work over there and they have to give security and benefits in flights

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
