      Pros

      Can run with your own ideas. They may not necessarily be implemented, but people will listen to what you have to say. And of course, the flight benefits are one of the best reasons to work here. I do not currently work here anymore and already miss flying for next to nothing. However I am not 100% sure on how its benefits compare with the other airlines out there.

      Cons

      Company still has financial issues to work out - I still think AMR is way too big to go under and will survive. Sometiems hard to use benefits on popular routes that involve main AA hubs

      Pros

      Flight benefits, and nice people to work with. Great training. Work has time for breaks in between flights which allow for a little rest. Job can be strenuous at times, but being outdoors most of the time is a real plus for me. There is a lot to learn and a lot of on going lessons to do, but you have good technology provided to complete this training. AA's training in Ft. Worth is outstanding, and you should take advantage of as much of it as is possible. Shifts change often, and they work with you to get the best schedule for each person.

      Cons

      Very fast pace on occasion, and a crazy customer once every few months.
