Former Employee – worked at Southwest Airlines
Pros – Flight benifits
Health insurance
ot
company treated there employees great
give up work days to other employees and not get punished for it
Loved working there, I just wish they had part time so i could of stayed. I had to get another job because pay was so low i couldnt afford to survive. I could of given up my days to other employees but since they were so short and ot was so available you had to pay someone to take your days. Its not like that now they wre begging people for there scheds
Cons – starting pay was really low
had to get days off

Current Employee – been working at Southwest Airlines
Pros – It can still be an enjoyable place to work although not like it was ten or fifteen years ago. Compensation and Benefits are better than Industry average at this time. Most employees still go out of their way to help each other out. The atmosphere is mostly positve for the most part.
Cons – The level of cost cutting is becoming very apparent out in the field and it is not a good trend. If you are honest about some of the issues facing Southwest then some of Management brands you as a "malcontent". The Company is not as progressive as it could be in alot of areas.
Advice to Senior Management – You had better pay attention to what is going on out at the stations because the Customer Experience is beginning to really show issues and this is the only thing we have to offer. i.e. no first class, entertainment etc

Current Employee – been working at Southwest Airlines
Pros – Fun, big family atmosphere. Good benefits. Flexibility in work schedule. Growing, profitable airline; so there are opportunities. In my department, inflight, they do a great job in hiring. I meet and work with the most interesting, fun and slightly quirky people.
Cons – Mid-level management sometimes not that impressive.
Advice to Senior Management – Focus on preserving company culture and make sure that you and lower level management aren't just talking the talk about the golden rule, but walking the walk.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend
