Pros

There are some quality people that work with Swissport and that have been in the industry with this company for 10,15,20+ years. My initial thought was this was a good sign; people tend not to leave.

Cons

There is a strong attempt by corporate to standardize globally, which is often times very unrealistic because of regional differences. The company is constantly pushing and pushing for more and more out of it's people without any compensation (cancelling annual pay raises and bonuses, but expecting people to work longer hours)

Pros

There is a sense of family culture at the airside level, and that was one of the few genuinely positive parts of the experience.

Cons

Unfortunately, the overall environment was overshadowed by micromanagement and a culture where communication often felt dishonest. There were situations where it seemed like management claimed conversations or warnings had happened when they had not, only to move quickly to write employees up. The lack of consistency and trust made the workplace frustrating and difficult to navigate. There also seemed to be high turnover, along with very little clear direction or path for growth. On top of that, some business practices came across as focused on avoiding providing proper benefits, which left a negative impression.
