Almost free flight benefits. People are really nice except for upper management.
Cons
Communications are non-existent. Pay is really low and it's hard to get a raise. No vacation your first year only state mandated sick time they call PTO. Turnover is extremely high so information is lost. CEO cusses at people for not getting things done because of short staffing.
