Pros

The friends you can make,networking opportunites and of course Travel benefits!

Cons

poor working conditions, poor quality of life, bad hotels and you can easily fly anywhere between 18-30 flights a week it can seriously deteriorate your health as a flight attendant especially if you're a woman.by far the flight attendant pay is horrific considering you manage all aspects of cabin operations and cabin safety.

Pros

Flight benefits Teams around me encourage work life balance and hype each other up Hard work and focus pay off Reasonable and clear expectations Work feels meaningful Aviation is bae I try to talk everyone into joining us now!

Cons

The golden carrot is real here. I could leave and probably make way more money elsewhere....but then I couldn't go on as many adventures! I also couldn't find a team as great

Pros

1. Incredible work-life balance. The team is incredibly collaborative and there to help out. There are plenty of opportunities to take ownership and step in where you would like to make decisions backed by data. Everyone understands life outside of work is real and is not just accommodating to it but encouraging prioritizing that. 2. The autonomy given to employees to do their job as they see fit is incredible. 3. Travel benefits. I went to London last weekend to watch a soccer game for the cost of taxes.

Cons

1. Corporate red tape. For being under the American Airlines umbrella, I would've assumed we would be more established. It feels like a startup in some ways with the red tape and scissors being held by American. This just slows things down. 2. Vacation days lag behind the market. Other companies have 4-5 weeks or unlimited PTO. For a company that runs on business travel and vacations, I would've thought that the emphasis on the need to vacation would be higher as you get 10 days to start + 2 jetaway days (floating holidays) + 4 days of personal time (meant for appts and sick days). 3. Salary expectations not met. However the room for growth within the company counters this.
