Pros
You get flight benefits
Cons
They got rid of my position and put me back as a flight attendant, then posted my position back on the website a week later. This is an example of the type of company they are.
Advice to Management
Get out of the position if you are going to only hire your friends so the company doesn't have to furlough people again. If they have no experience or education they should not be qualified to have it.

Doesn't RecommendPositive OutlookNo opinion of CEOI worked at ExpressJet Airlines full-time for more than 10 years
Pros
Flexible schedule, travel benefits, friendly coworkers
Cons
ExpressJet used to be a great company but Co. Changes became all about bottom line. Union staff changed to inexperienced selfish people who only care for themselfs and buddies and don't do their jobs and support the flight attendants. Give away the rights in the contract. Union dues too high for pay and service.
Advice to Management
Get some people who treat employees like living, breathing human beings instead of robots. Its not always the flight attendants fault! Follow the contract that management agreed to. Negotiate fairly for the next one.

Pros
As a new associate I have never been welcomed to a company with such open arms. Every single person I encounter is warm and friendly. I took this job based off of the interview, and the immediate level of comfort I felt with the hiring manager.
Cons
The pay is not the best, but use tunnel vision to see your future.

"Great Airline in the Aviation Industry"
StarStarStarStarStar- Career Opportunities
I worked at ExpressJet Airlines full-time for more than 8 years
Pros
Expressjet is a great airline to work for. Flight crews and flight attendants work close together and I always felt like we were a family.
Cons
Because this is a small regional airline, there are not many bases to choose from. But you are allowed to ask for a transfer after 6 months at your current base.
Advice to Management
Flight crews are the front line of the company and they know first hand what the customer's expectations are. Please be open to their suggestions.

Pros
if you can’t find anything else they’ll hire you. Flight benefits are nice and health insurance is good.
Cons
Pay is lowest in the industry with no raise in sight. Management is awful and unwilling to help. They keep around mechanics that are not capable of doing the work and management knows they’re not capable but it’s man hours on paper work so they don’t care. Older union guys hate it there and are constantly complaining.
