Pros

The work/life balance is very good although that can vary by department. Management will listen to feedback and there is a system in place to gather that information from the whole company. Wages are very good, especially at HQ where the cost of living is low. There is a great deal of security, only once have there been layoffs and those were relatively minor. There have been voluntary buyouts over the years allowing some people to take a bonus for leaving.

Cons

Wages, although good, have been stagnant for several years. Travel has been dramatically cut. Too much money goes to pilot salaries. Internal job opportunities have become scarce.

Pros

One of the benefits they list to get you in the door is TOP RATE pay*. The top rate is currently unknown but general consensus is 20 years to top rate pay. If you love standing around making up stories in your own head for two hours while spreading rumors amongst your unabashed co-workers about other co-workers you’ve interacted 2 minutes in the year you’ve worked together then this job is for you! Minimal logic involved.

Cons

Fellow employees will unionize to get you out of your route. Employees will make up stories to pit employees against one another. Fellow employees will threaten other employees for being friendly to one another. The management is willing bend over backwards to give you a bad review if leaving for another job. Co-workers are extremely bored and in most cases workload differs dramatically depending on where you are on the sort.
