United Airlines reviews

The point system for absent, tardy, and using your sick time. Yes even when you are sick and bring proof like a doctors statement. You still will get a point, I was given a point when I had to go give birth to my child. It's hard to transfer into another station or job position mainly because people won't retire.

United is the opposite of meritocracy - it's the reason why it's the most unionized airline because management will always favor friends and family. Management in pilot scheduling is run by high school graduates that simply ingratiated themselves to a director with below-average intelligence to get promoted. The company markets itself as a progressive airline but behind the scenes is still run chiefly by boomers and their mentality to work. I had a colleague who was late to work and was in a car accident and they reprimanded him. You must look elsewhere if you're looking for flexibility, good pay, and time off. Of course, disregard if you're going to be working in corporate but realize they only give you 2 weeks vacation.
