Pros

Diversity, decent benefits for management,

Cons

Upper management is so out of touch it's scary. Would not recommend it. But I suppose it just depends on who's at the helm. From equipment failures to facilities, day to day operations are affected when equipment isn't working. It lowers morale to see things in a constant state of repair or being forced to utilize broken equipment to get the job done. Just a run of the mill outfit ran by individuals that sit in a reverb room and expect results. Spend 40k a month on heating a warehouse in the middle of July but complain about profitability. This company spends so much on things that don't generate one ounce of profit but complain when situations happen that could be prevented if given the proper equipment. Its pig with makeup. ORD 2023 is no bueno.

Pros

Learned a lot as an aircraft fueler, my manager at the time recognized my hard work and offered me a lead position. there was plenty of overtime and opportunities to explore different aspects of aircraft fueling. If I could I would definitely return to the company and get into management.

Cons

some employees I worked with made most of my shifts harder than they had to be. the job itself was easy and enjoyable for the time being even with call offs and no shows.

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.
