Pros

Flight benefits Work out of a hangar not an airport The only flight attendant in the cabin If you have a dog you can come home each day.

Cons

Pay is sub-par vs. any other type of airline. Yet, the work is as intense as private jets with small exceptions. The days are very long with no breaks as you are the only one in the cabin. Leadership is stubborn and self-absorbed. They embrace favoritism. They are disconnected and unconcerned with what matters to employees. They delay addressing valid and serious concerns or complaints until they lose enough employees or have enough operation problems to warrant a change. Safety concerns are whispered amongst the crews... few take a stand out of fear. Bottom line: It's not a place where people are viewed as the best part of the company. Profits (and their own executive pay) is the best part for them. You can do better elsewhere.

Pros

You get Discount on other airlines.

Cons

They keep you at 14 day minimum guarantee. It’s nice they guarantee 14 days but most months they only give everyone that many and you can’t drop bellow 14 days. Everyone wants to work and pick up days but no one can. They pay Daily $165 and have been working us 11-12 hour days. That’s $15 an hour all the big airlines pay more than that. You do get $100 extra at 12 hours but they try to keep you just under 12 hours. Corporate is so disconnected from the day to day operations they think things work a completely different way then they do. They are quick to give warning for being sick, and fire quickly. Super high turnover rate here and they can not keep good help. No one makes enough in day to Day operations (flight and ground crew) to enjoy their benefits. All management is under qualified for their positions and have no idea what they are doing. The company culture is toxic and is about who you know.

Pros

I LOVED working here. Great product. The downside was poor communication to line level team members. There are constant changes, makes sense as they are growing and trying to dial in their business model. I left in good standing and hesitant to write this due to backlash, but choosing to be honest. I would still be working there today and fine with the low pay and terrible scheduling, if they could just get a full line level team in place.

Cons

Training is poor, communication of any new process is poor, as fall out they blame policy and procedure fails on line level staff over and over. They do no think through new policies and blame line level staff for problems as those are discovered. There is excessive turnover as they have a culture of writing up line level staff for middle-management errors. Middle management spends too much time watching surveillance cameras and literally laughing at line level staff (they did this during my initial hire training, ruing recurrent training and at other times while during my employment) instead of grooming and training team members to be better. As a result staff turnover is excessive, excited new staff moral gets knocked down fast. Both of which is hard on the more Senior Staff that ends up running ragged to compensate for untrained employees. This dynamic makes working there exhausting. You can NEVER get time off. I was initially hired part time and would work 35-55 hours per week. The scheduling is brutal. They will do things like: Schedule you to work until 1am, then have you work the next morning at 8am. They will knowingly schedule your 8 hour shift from 1pm to 8pm, knowing you will get stuck working until 12pm for scheduled later flights. They will beg you to cover shifts....all of this is because they are ALWAYS short staffed. This is also why you are not able to get paid time off ever. I worked there two years and hoped the experience would get me into another airline. It did not work so far. Pay is low, which I was fine with, until I realized we would never have a fully trained team due to middle management undermining line level staff.
