Pros

Decent hours, good normal benefits like 401K, sick leave, pension, etc. Great unique benefits that extend beyond employer-provided. Air travel at pennies on the dollar, and travel industry discounts around the world.

Cons

The pay is very average. In the IT industry, pay is about 40% of what the non-airline industry pays.

Advice to Management

Upgrade the pay system, as well as getting the pre-merger benefits back to where they were.
