Pros

You need a job and you love working with the public. You enjoy last minute travel and can deal with major business instability.

Cons

Poor pay, chronic management instability and an inability to make money as a business. The corporate culture has valued longevity with the company over job performance, and given much of the upheaval in the industry most of the good people have left. While the new CEO is saying the right words, they have all been said before.

Pros

If you love to travel, you can fly virtually anywhere in the world for free (and in business class). This is what kept me at Delta for so long.

Cons

If you enjoy going through a major corporate restructuring about once a year, then this is the place for you. The airline industry lends itself to constant cost reduction campaigns simply to survive. Also, the pay is horrible.

Pros

Delta has a great 401K plan, and it's a great Airline with worldwide recognition.

Cons

The internal barriers to advancement and recognition are most difficult. The politics of being in the right "click" are very evident to low-level administration personnel, but not to directors and above.
