Cons
If you're looking to move ahead in your career and not German, don't bother here, even if you're blond and blue-eyed. The blatant discrimination is so frustrating. You know you are qualified but you are literally a nobody if you are one of them. Even at the analyst/coordinator level, they're already mostly German. A lot of them were former interns and you have some locals working for a long time and they're not even promoted. If I had known this, I would've never joined the company. I don't know why the government lets in these people to discriminate against the country's people. The pay is disgusting at 42k/year for an analyst and a 1% raise every 3 years, if that. That qualifies you for low-income housing in Nassau county, where Lufthansa operates (the threshold per NYS is 51k). I don't understand why they don't pay more for people who support entire sales teams with financial numbers dealing in the hundred millions. Most analyst are looking to leave in exodus for a fair paying job. Lufthansa will have complete brain drain in a few short years at the rate they're going. They also hire a lot of management trainees and pay them really low salaries after the program because they're stuck for two years as per their contracts. These people just keep leaving after a year or two and they're constantly hiring new trainees. The trainees are of course college educated, with many of them having master's. Some alma maters include NYU, Duke, Penn State, etc. They are not stupid - they will take their experience and go somewhere else asap. Do not work for this airline. They are constantly cutting back and offering severance packages for the higher paid employees (we all think this is so they can have the management trainees take over their jobs for 50% less). Go to Emirates. Go to JetBlue. Go into the city if you want to be fairly paid. HR is strong here. You have no say and they do not help you whatsoever. They are ONLY there for the company and do not care about you. They are involved in everything. The funniest part is that they don't even shovel the parking lot correctly and there's ice all over. I'm just waiting for someone to fall - you would think HR would be all over that. 30 minute dock for lunch time. That adds up to over two weeks unpaid in one year.
