      Complete lack of Leadership.

      Pros

      They have nice new aircraft and the employees are great to work with.

      Cons

      Management is comprised of bean-counters who know nothing of leadership or accountability. Their only mission is to fill their pockets and thus only concern is shareholder returns. They put safety below their own interests and that is not good in the airline business. In their defense they have put out some great ideas like RNAV approaches and the "Airport of the Future." The milage plan is also good. Mainly, the way they treat employees is awful and there is no leadership.

      Alaska Airlines: No culture, no spirit, no future.

      Pros

      If you want to live and fly in Anchorage or Seattle and don't mind working for a company whose management team only wants to take care of themselves then this is the place for you.

      Cons

      Management continually fails to recognize the expertise available in day to day operations by current employees and makes decisions based on "focus groups" comprised of mid level managers who are out of touch with operations. What little positive corporate culture and team spirit is left is rapidly decaying under management's remote and deaf leadership. Constant reminders by leadership that they don't trust your judgement or ability to help lead the operation.
