Pros

You don't work too hard!

Cons

The company doesn't care about customers or employees. The company culture is non existent. Management stinks and the company is selfish!

Pros

Excellent training! Starting pay is higher than most airlines (but caps out lower). J/S agreements with many other airlines. Lots of free show tickets in Vegas. Entertainment and hotel discounts at various locations. Always adding new locations and company is very profitable.

Cons

Aircraft are extremely old and not maintained well. B757 breaks down every other day. MD-80 is always hot and you get dripped on by something every flight in the back J/S. Afternoon flights are almost always delayed. Crew Services run reserves into the ground. The company seems to have very poor customer service. Older F/As seem to be so negative towards the company that they can make your day unenjoyable.

An exhaustingly disappointing experience

Pros

• Nice headquarter buildings (lots of rooms for meeting)

Cons

Let me say this: It took months after my departure from Allegiant to get my mental state back to an adequate place. My workload was absurdly heavy, and the toxicity of my co-workers was the worst I've ever experienced in a professional setting, Making matters worse, my Manager stoked the flames of the dysfunction when approached about it at multiple junctures, choosing to spend more time cheer-leading the CEO and company than addressing the broken system that he/she created. Human Resources (People Services) was utterly useless in resolving these issues as well, which was the final straw for me. Soon thereafter, I found my way to a markedly better position and environment, but not before a barrage of mental damage had already manifested. In fact, my time here was such a nightmare that when I left, I was burned out, broken, and had completely forgotten about what it was like to work alongside half-decent human beings. As far as the work/life balance: • PTO was horrendous (only 1 week your first year) • Sick days were low (about 1 week per year) • They finally introduced parental leave in 2021 (but I can only wonder about the stipulations behind actually getting to use it) For the record, the leadership in my area openly asked the employees if we could submit Glassdoor reviews of our experiences at Allegiant, and this was during a period where they were promoting their Glassdoor "Best Places To Work" status quite heavily. It felt forced and cheap and, as such, readers to these reviews should take some of the positive feedback with a grain of salt. It's also worth mentioning that the official responses to some of the negative reviews here are shockingly on brand, at least when compared to my experience. The whole "we hope that you took the time to provide this perspective during the exit interview process" shtick is about as heartless and empty of a statement as I've ever seen toward a legitimate business concern. No, Allegiant, not every employee will hand-deliver you their trials and tribulations just because you e-mailed out a survey, or provided an exit interview... When you feel like you're being mentally abused, it's difficult to express your feelings out loud, especially when you fear retaliation and can't trust those who are put in a position to protect you. The stories I have of this place will live with me a lifetime (though I wish they wouldn't).

Allegiant Air Response

Thank you for taking the time to write your review. We are sorry you did not have a better experience. Although Allegiant may not be a great pairing for everyone, many Team Members are happy and stay and grow their careers. This is reflected in a few ways, including a number of awards and our Glassdoor score. We do encourage participation in the survey and promote it to our Team Members and candidates to help show what a day in the life is like. Our PTO package (specifically for non-union groups) was just updated to include two weeks’ vacation per year starting from day one and increases over time. We also offer sick days, holidays and floating holidays. We are proud to offer six weeks paid parental leave as well and many Team Members have been able to use the leave. This program is continually reviewed as well to ensure we are competitive with the market since we know it’s an important benefit. At Allegiant, we are always looking for ways to increase our leaders’ business acumen and training. This includes but is not limited to managing diverse workforces, managing conflict, interview skills, etc. We also have many feedback loops from safety to internal audit.
