Pros

The work/life balance is very good although that can vary by department. Management will listen to feedback and there is a system in place to gather that information from the whole company. Wages are very good, especially at HQ where the cost of living is low. There is a great deal of security, only once have there been layoffs and those were relatively minor. There have been voluntary buyouts over the years allowing some people to take a bonus for leaving.

Cons

Wages, although good, have been stagnant for several years. Travel has been dramatically cut. Too much money goes to pilot salaries. Internal job opportunities have become scarce.

Pros

Easy to apply, fast to get hired (no interview process) and the pay

Cons

Very rude management, lack of care for safety, no drinkable water (all filters are in the red and have been since I started) They have cameras everywhere and are constantly watching you but say you can’t bring your own phone in because “people steal them”? There is junk everywhere. Lots of trash everywhere (employees drinks and food). They want you to work and eat on the line instead of giving you breaks to do so. They get upset when you use the bathroom or fill your water bottle even if you’ve been working for 3 hours straight but if you clock in at an area 2 min walking distance from your work area you’re “stealing time” I’ve noticed people of color get treated differently. The HR department has some of the most prejudice employees so there’s no real equality if you have conflict with someone. I’ve never been, but it feels like a prison to go in and out of the building and lastly you don’t work a consistent schedule. You leave when they say you can.
