Flying J was amazing company until
Sales, Production management (Former Employee), Hubbard, OH – April 22, 2013
Pros: healthcare
Cons: no advancement opp
I loved working for Flying J until Pilot took over the stores have gone down hill, They do not care about the customers they care about the money they make. I honestly can't believe a company of this size is losing the relationship with the customers over greed of money. Employees do not stay long due to No advancement opportunity company would rather – more... hire out side the company and train people instead promoting within. – less

Life at Flying J
Cashier/Deli (Current Employee), Haubstadt, IN – April 10, 2013
Pros: co-workers
Cons: not enough hours. some co-workers slacking on their job.
Would come in, usually working in deli, have nothing left for me to use such as pizzas, clean dishes. Would have to get everything caught up for myself within a 5 hour time period before i left, and the next person came in. Loved the people that came in though, all different types of people. Love most of my co-workers, very friendly people.

Don't do it.
Travel Center Manager (Former Employee), KS – April 10, 2013
Pros: customers and coworkers
Cons: everything else
I worked for this company for almost five years. Up until last year everything seemed good to me. But then I go the job as Travel Center Manager. I kept getting told that the only reason I got it was because NO one wanted to come to the store I worked out. Also I had a miscarriage at the beginning of the year and they didn't do anything for me. I found – more... out I lost the baby and they still expected me to work that same day and every day after that. This company does NOT care about their employees. – less

Productive and fun work place
Maintenance (Former Employee), Denham Springs, LA – April 9, 2013
Pros: paid weekly, discount off purchases
Easy-going all customers satisfied. Team work is the way to go. Respectful and well-mannered staff. The hardest part is completing all tasks before clocking out. The best part is helping others conquer success.

deli assistant (Former Employee), Hermosa, SD – April 5, 2013
My work day as a Assistant manager was good I new being an assistant that friendship stopped at the door. I enjoyed my job. Me and my boss got along great, not as friends but as co-works as well as me and other co-works everyone worked as a team split things up took turns doing stuff.

Working as a cashier there was the same. We worked well together – more... no problems if there was a problem we took it to the manager. – less

Pros: great co-workers, healthcare, management
I loved this job! I looked forward to work even on my day off I would go in for overtime. I love the management. They were so understanding and open minded to new innovations.

Pilot plays favorites and no job security
Co-Manager (Former Employee), Indiana – March 22, 2013
Pros: truck drivers - meeting new people everyday from all around the world.
Cons: low pay, no work life balance, beaten down by upper management, no care for your personal life.
This company stands for some great things. Customer service is a main focus. However, management is selfish. Pay is not good. If salary, your expected to work 50, 60, 70 hours and not get paid anything extra. It is almost impossible to achieve full bonus potential. You will be made to feel that you are never good enough. This job will kill you and spit – more... you out. Trust me, find another job. You will not have a career here and if you do try to, you will not be happy. There is no work life balance. AT ALL! – less

productive and much needed work place
Maintenance (Former Employee), Winnemucca, NV – March 19, 2013
Pros: free drinks on shift after buying the first, employees have a general respect for the public as well as top customer service.
Cons: management is weak and lazy with resovling internal issues, such as allowing customers to be endangered for over 6 six months and acting as nothing was wrong
was not a bad place to work but had many rotations in management making it hard to rely on upper management issue solving from repairs to employee issues. the work was a cake walk just had to keep moving, but I left because a college of 4 years was endangering customers at the propane station and management felt it was not needed to be fixed until osha – more... came into the situation. – less

Typical day at Flying J
Cashier (Former Employee), Rock Hill, SC – March 3, 2013
A typical day at Flying J intels arriving 10 minutes before your shift and counting your register. After counting your register you begin checking out customers. The hardest part of the job is dealing with the attitudes of the customers but the other cashiers made the day better by always keeping a positive attitude. Flying J management was not always – more... so friendly, if they made a mistake they always blamed the cashier. They made it known that they didn't need us because they could hire someone else at anytime. I didn't learn anything while working at Flying J but I did enjoy my time there. – less

Another wonderful experience
Night Manager/Accountant (Former Employee), New Milford, PA – February 28, 2013
Pros: amazing atmosphere to work in
Cons: none that i can remember
I bounced back and forth from night manager to back up accountant daily. The management was a pleasure to work for and with, my co-workers were amazing and willing to do anything to get the job done well. The hardest part of my job I would have to say was, leaving and going home. I loved the atmosphere.
