Pros

Swissport is a decent company, supervisor was great and knowledgable about company operations as well as that of other cargo services companies here. There is oppirtunity for career mobility. Multiple airlines and the company is constantly growing meaning various positions from cargo to ramp and passenger service. I worked at JFK for one of the major airlines. When i started pay was $8.50/hr and jumped to $9.50/hr after a couple months. Career oppurtunity/mobility

Cons

No flight benefits with airlines Knowjng that you only have ajob as long as Swissport has a contract with airlines No unity among co-workers even though we all wear the same jniform work the same company and even in the same building.

Pros

Meeting new people at work everyday.

Cons

EVERYTHING! This is the worst company ever, and their management for the Korean Airlines desk at Dulles is laughable AT BEST! First, its extremely clique-ish....so immature, unprofessional managers rise from this cesspool of sad, misguided, unprofessionalism to become no less than sad, ineffective, unprofessional managers who protect and defend their favorites and create a hostile work environment for those who don't fit into their protected class of misfits. Also, the training program for new agents is, well....IT JUST ISN'T! Managers actually tell you to "figure it out for yourself," or "this isn't the right job for you.....you're too educated." Well, if being "educated" means professionalism and identifying gaps (or in this case a complete ABSENCE of professionalism or training), then yes....perhaps I am. This is truly a hostile work environment and the saddest part is...they expect people to accept it, ALL FOR THE SUM OF $11/HOUR. I highly discourage anyone from working at this company, or from any other company from contracting their services!!! The word "BAD" does not do the Korean Airline aspect of Swissport justice....its TERRIBLE!
