Pros

Fairly easy job overall- if you are willing to actually work Benefits are alright

Cons

Pay could be better They will cut down your hours significantly without much notice. You can go from full-time to part-time within less than a week. Management is terrible, they barely come in to the office, they do not care about anyone but themselves and treat employees poorly. There is constant yelling by certain supervisors. There is a lot of favoritism and nepotism, good workers are treated poorly, while people who barely work get away with everything. They expect you to overwork yourself even when they fail to provide sufficient work for everyone. They will send you home and cut down your hours, full-time jobs/hours are apparently not a guarantee. They have prioritized buying a lot of furniture that is not being used, tvs and other things, while the entire facility and equipment have been in need for upgrades for a long time. HR is incompetent and slow to respond do not get any airline benefits they provide food and treats but it is mostly very unhealthy and junk food

Pros

Learned a lot as an aircraft fueler, my manager at the time recognized my hard work and offered me a lead position. there was plenty of overtime and opportunities to explore different aspects of aircraft fueling. If I could I would definitely return to the company and get into management.

Cons

some employees I worked with made most of my shifts harder than they had to be. the job itself was easy and enjoyable for the time being even with call offs and no shows.

Pros

There is a sense of family culture at the airside level, and that was one of the few genuinely positive parts of the experience.

Cons

Unfortunately, the overall environment was overshadowed by micromanagement and a culture where communication often felt dishonest. There were situations where it seemed like management claimed conversations or warnings had happened when they had not, only to move quickly to write employees up. The lack of consistency and trust made the workplace frustrating and difficult to navigate. There also seemed to be high turnover, along with very little clear direction or path for growth. On top of that, some business practices came across as focused on avoiding providing proper benefits, which left a negative impression.
