Pros

travel benefits and working with some great people, I got to see so much of the world by flying dometically and internationally that I wouldn't have otherwise been able to see. I regret that I can no longer do that since I am no longer employed by American Airlines.

Cons

long hours, pay cuts, the current family leave policy which caused me to be terminated after almost 14 years of flying with the company back in late 2004.

Pros

There are some truly wonderful people at American. Many care deeply about aviation and have a calling for what they do. The diversity is outstanding. The industry is endlessly fascinating. You are always learning.

Cons

Sadly, the toxicity of my department after we were reorganized. It turned a job I loved into one I dreaded. And management looked the other way while a steady stream of talent exited through the revolving door. I would have done nearly anything for the company. Politics, pettiness and a "mean girls" culture destroyed morale, and the negative behavior was only rewarded. PTO allowance is cheap, making flight benefits great only on paper for your first 5 years of employment.
