Pros
Awesome co workers, love the travel benefits
Cons
Very low pay almost poverty wages, lots of unpaid work like during boarding, no food for the crew even if the flights are long so you're basically wishing that some 1st class passengers will not eat their meals. They sometimes want to ignore the rules to accommodate the passengers.

- 2.0Feb 22, 2023Flight AttendantFormer Employee, more than 1 yearChicago, IL
Pros
Free flights when you can actually use them
Cons
Once they merged with United it went down hill from there. Flights are always oversold, no way to commute home on standby. Best luck is jump seating with US airways or American. Good luck trying to plan a vacation and actually use the perks of free flights. Flights are always over sold so it makes it impossible to plan a trip because you can get stuck & waste 2 days just trying to get to your destination.
