US Airways Employee Review

Current Employee – been working at US Airways full-time for more than a year

Pros – You get to put a Fortune 500 on your resume.

Cons – The pay is low
The flight benefits in theory are great, but with the industry reducing capacity good luck finding seats
Promotions tend to occur based on who is the most airline "nerdy" and not who is best equipped to lead or manage, which as you can imagine can create problems. I don't fault the individuals, just believe the flaw in the logic to promoting puts them in position to fail.

Advice to Senior Management – Perform an analysis on the cost of paying better to retain employees vs. the output you get from lesser experienced, inferior labor plus training costs.
Revisit your promotion logic and/or look into training your managers on how to be managers

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