Alaska Airlines reviews

Very political. A lot of people there were NOT qualified for the positions they held. Long hours. Little or no compensation (most of the time, not even a 'thank you'). Only way to get promoted is if someone 'likes' you, whether or not you can do the job. I worked with quite a few people over the years who were smarter than their Managers/Directors who felt threatened and rather than embrace their talent they were passed over for promotion and ultimately left or were conveniently 'let go' during a Company reduction. Their 'values' to own safety, do the right thing, be kind-hearted, deliver performance, and be remarkable are total crap. All they care about is the bottom line and working you to your breaking point.

After several years on the job it was time for me to move on. Alaska has a great public image, but it’s plagued with internal dysfunction and conflict. Fear based, ego driven cowboy culture.
