United Airlines reviews

Continental never needed a union..It was a Company that treated employees with dignity and respect..Since the merger and union it is management and employees against each other. A company will never succeed with this type of culture..It is hard to provide great customer service with the product that is provided..the planes are old ...every other flight is a mechanical delay or cancelled or no crew.A company will not succeed with this type of product..

Pay is lower compared to other companies for similar roles and experience. All about supply and demand. There are a lot of people that want to work for United, and are willing to do so at a lower pay rate, and United knows that. Flight benefits are considered a form of financial compensation, and also a reason for lower salaries. United operates on a very thin margin, with expenses much higher than competitors. So when numbers don't come in good, reductions in force occur much too frequently. Recent reductions seem to be targeted at their older workforce, so they are losing a lot of wisdom and business knowledge. The remaining 20-somethings have been promoted to management levels, but have no clue on how to manage people or a business.
