Pros

I heard a ton of negative things before I started working at Gate but thought I would give it a shot. I have worked with some of the larger orginizations in the DC metro area and very few compare. Gate provides a positive work enviorment with a tremendous amount of opportunities for growth. Do you work hard? Yes, but it's not unreasonable at all! I have worked a number of places where they expect the unachievable and this not that type of an environment at all. Not to mention that the people that surround you everyday are all sharp dedicated professionals who know how to combine fun while driving for success on a daily basis. I'm sure it's not for everyone, but I am excited that I have had the chance to work at Gate Gourmet.

Cons

The benefits are not the best but certainly not the worst in the market. Although there is the opportunity to work from home at times it's not a virtual driven environment. When traveling to some great locations you never stray that far from the airport.

Pros

staedy job, salary on time,

Cons

supervisors are ignorent and does not work systematically , truck are rusty and ramp agent over burden , need to cater aircraft in 15 minutes , and run to the next gate, then refill and re load the truck again , 5 minute lunch break and then spend your lunch time building up soda tray and then load again in the truck , twice go to trash to clean the truck and after 8 or 10 hrs again refill and re load the truck with supplies for next driver . no holiday no sick leave ,and supervisor is always looking to and threatning to fire you , more like master and slave type of mentality .
