Pros

This is a great company to work for. As a Part Time Pilot, I am very impressed with the level of loyalty from the company to every one of it's employees, from Flight Crew to back office folks. The company management is very transparent and none of them are afraid to roll up their sleeves and join in. For a variety of reasons which are all good, I occasionally see Upper Management flying the line at 4.00am on Mondays. A great sense of teamwork and recognition. Everyone is on a first name basis and everyone is treated the same. Management treats Part Time employees with the same benefits as Full Time employees. Benefits are constantly reviewed and continually improved. I can't say enough about how much I continue enjoy to work for Tradewind for the past six years.

Cons

There's nothing not to like about working at Tradewind Aviation

Pros

Tradewind is a great employer that offers tons of benefits and monthly lunch for all employees. All the people are super friendly and easy to get along with. Great work/life balance.

Cons

None so far as I have only been employed a few months. Feels like a startup culture which is great but growing very fast.

Pros

Unfortunately, I struggled to find any meaningful positives during my time with the company. While every workplace has its challenges, this environment made it difficult to identify any truly beneficial aspects worth highlighting.

Cons

There was a lack of consistency in communication—expectations and directives changed daily. The company often made promises during recruitment that didn’t reflect the reality of the job. There is a noticeable culture of favoritism and nepotism, where advancement seems to be based more on personal connections than on merit or performance. Concessions and preferential treatment are routinely made for certain individuals. Ethical standards are questionable at best, and several practices could raise serious concerns if ever reviewed by agencies like the Department of Labor or the EEOC. Unfortunately, while this should be motivation to implement necessary changes, there seems to be little interest in genuine accountability.
