Pros
- Somewhat cliche, but hard work gets recognized and rewarded
- Overall compensation is decent relative to peer companies and industries
- Vital industry to global economy
- Constant crisis / firefighting creates opportunities to prove your worthCons
- Constant crisis / firefighting, particularly with unions, gets tiresome
- Negative public image never subsides; constantly defending yourself with neighborhood friends
- Many lifers get into upper level positions and never leave. Some seem to get title inflation based on seniority in the position. Must be the heavy unionism influence on management decision makingAdvice to Senior Management
- Too late, but don't sell out to the saps in ATL. Or maybe do sell out and let the world see how well they can deal with unions.
