Pros

flight benefits but thats it

Cons

EVERYTHING. pay is low, they hire part times employeesso they don't have to give out actual benefits to employ because delta is obviously short on cash. management is horrible especially in san diego, the men in charge are all incompetent and don't even know how to check someone in. yes you have flight benefits but getting time off to use them is impossible also you won't have enough money to do anything else once bills are paid. they give the least to their employees while hoping for the most in return lol. The red coats(sort of leads but not really) are all lazy and hide in the back while taking advantage of the part timers and even cutting our lunches short. Also no room for growth, especially san diego. Don't work here.

Pros

travel benefits, profit sharing pay at LAX starting is about $18.99 and ONLY because LAX itself has a minimum wage ordinance or else it would be about $14 like every other station in the US.

Cons

ready reserve means you have a limit on how many hours you can do a year and that was 1600 i believe, there is overtime available during busy season when everyone travels on vacation.. it is hard earned money! hard labor..

Pros

Get the opportunity to travel, get an extra paycheck.

Cons

The workload was way too heavy for graveyard shift every night with under staffed. The work is repetitive and does cause your body to ache. There are leads do not know how to treat other workers with respect and it was abusive. Not a friendly place for people who work part time here. They treat part time ready reserves like slaves. Limited benefits for ready reserve. If you get hurt, there is no coverage for you. It does not give you the balance you need from personal life. If you are just in it for travel and pay check then it is fine. But the pay is too low for what you have to endure each day or night that you work there. You do not get paid certain holidays which is only meant for full-time positions. There is no progression in this job for moving up. That means you will be stuck as a cargo agent to toil with your lower back hurting and arms feeling broken every night and will keep doing that forever. Delta is a good company. It is just this cargo warehouse. The culture within this location is just terrible. The older guys get to relax while the new crew does everything.
