Pros

Really nice people. Good insurance.

Cons

Hard to work in if not at corp site. As usual execs ignore poor treatment of its site leaders of its employees. Yelling and cussing by execs at local sites. If you are middle management you are between a rock and a rock. Upper management holds you responsible for everything and employees blame you for everything. They allow anonymous comments about managers during employee survey and then allows all managers to read them. This is demeaning to those wrongly or rightly accused. Women are treated rather poorly. Hr directors are so afraid for their jobs because they are women and not part of good ole boy club they overlook the abuse of other women.

Pros

They provide decent benefits and its a paycheck

Cons

Your ability to clock in for the day is dependent to you being able locate your lead, since you can't clock in till you have a job to clock in on. I've been early but because I could not find my lead been shorted 15 minutes for the day. This happens with some regularity. They allow people who don't work for the company (contractors) and aren't licensed to be leads. No one seems to care and the work is affected by this.

Pros

Work if you want to live in Afghanistan and fill a departing employee position whom has witnessed the lack of sales and domestic flight operations.

Cons

government drawdown, is reducing the number of aircraft, both helicopter and fixed wing. Airlift does not have any other flying business, corporate has aircraft it operates and it is not bringing Airlift employees to fly them, it went to the open market.
