Pros

Fellow front line workers are top notch people. Also, if you live in one of their outstation bases, it is nice just being able to drive to work instead of catching multiple flights. Until they decide to close your base.

Cons

Management spends more time and money to create the illusion of culture change than actually changing the culture. Front line employees are treated as liabilities and not as assets. Ceo continues to create a hostile work environment by trying to pit different employee groups against one another. For pilot career advancement I would not come here. The majority of our attrition is from the First Officer ranks which means not much vertical movement and Captain upgrade opportunities. Many other regional airlines offer better travel benefits, health insurance, 401(k) plans and advancement opportunities.

Flight Benefits are hard to use but nice

Typical depressing work environment. Right on par with classic corporate America. High expectations with normal midwest pay.
