Good place to work
Contract Analyst (Former Employee) – Dallas, TX – October 4, 2018
It was a good place to work but management was not good. Learned about construction and work with sub contracts with payment for services. You have to one of their favorites to get hire or advance.
Shall not take a position at that facility again
World Wide Flight Services Maintenance Supervisor (Former Employee) – DFW, TX – September 23, 2018
Worked there for 4 years for 3 different companies. hours are long management is poor. Atmosphere is caustic at best toxic at its worst. Ground support equipment contract companies Swissport and WFS are mismanaged and technicians are underpaid and over worked. Facilities are third world as far as mechanic shops no running water to wash hands closest rest room is over 100 feet from work area. No heat in the winter had to take fans from other companies in 110 degree heat to at least circulate air in shops.
Pros
None to mention
Cons
Working there
Productive and fun workplace with collaborative team
Estimator/Cost Manager (Former Employee) – DCC building – September 19, 2018
That job was for TEI construction that worked on DFW Airport construction projects. There were several construction companies in our cost management team that creates healthy competitive environment and challenges. My typical day is from 8 am to 5pm with one hour lunch break. The hardest part for traveling from and to work.The traffic to work and from work wishes to be better. Freeway is always busy and you would need to triple or quadruple travel time determined from Google maps. The most enjoyable part was collaborative team work that helped me to build new skills and learn new software.
Pros
Collaborative team
Cons
Travel to and from work time
you can work at your own pace

Program Manager, Airport Development & Engineering (Former Employee) – DFW, TX – August 24, 2018
The last group of individuals to join the airport led to the release of 23 of 30 managers to individual contributors. The VP was an certifiable idiot and was hired by the EVP who also wasn't qualified.
Pros
Working hours
Cons
pay
N/a
Business Center Manager at the Grand Hyatt (Current Employee) – Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, TX – August 14, 2018
A typical work day is informing guest where to go for a meeting or to which terminal their flight is flying out of and times. The hardest part of the job is actually getting out the airport. The most enjoyable part of the job is seeing new faces and helping out when needed.
Great Place to work
Customer Relations Coordinator (Current Employee) – DFW, TX – August 2, 2018
Great place to work. This is my review and I'm totally happy with it. You should check this place out as its a great place to work. In the meantime, you should look at all the jobs that are posted at dfwairport.com/careers to see if something matches your background, education and interests. Good luck.
Great place to start a job and stay for many years.
Guest Assistant (Former Employee) – Grapevine, TX – August 1, 2018
For the most part, I loved the environment. They seem to be very family oriented which I loved. They also updated us with any changes in the airport. There were a lot of people in charge but, they all seem to work well together. The meetings before hand used to help discussing not only work related and personal things as well. I went through a hard time and they were one of the reasons I was able to handle it because of their support. There is culture, diversity, team work and passion which all seem to make it all work together.
Pros
Family enviroement, meeting new people everyday
Cons
working outside allday no matter the weather
Used to be a Great place to work
Project Manager (Former Employee) – Dallas, TX – July 10, 2018
Last five years Management and executive Management has changed numerous times, with out any clear direction. Spent millions of dollars on programs that had proven in the past to fail. Yes there are people in management that will back ball you, Human Resources is just a name.
Fun work place
Shuttle Driver (Former Employee) – Express Parking – June 8, 2018
Everything was good with working at the airport! What I like the most about it is meeting all kinds of travelers.You never know who you are going to meet and who can help you. It's a fun place to work.
Hard working facility
HMS Host (Current Employee) – Dallas, TX – June 2, 2018
The HMS Host employers are very professional and understanding with things as long as you plan ahead but they are short staffed. They dont offer medical benefits but they fit the description of what i needed at the time.
Fair enough, not bad but not great pay
Baggage Handler (Former Employee) – DFW Airport, TX – May 17, 2018
Did not have any issues with management or people I worked with. However, the pay was not sufficient enough. I enjoyed my job, coworkers were great to work with.
Workplace Culture
Board & Owner Cities Specialist (Current Employee) – Dallas, TX – May 3, 2018
there is the right way, the wrong way, and the DFW Airport way - it's usually somewhere in the middle. There is a lot of expectations of you, but any ideas you may have are quickly squashed. it's a "do as we say" type enviornment.
Pros
Great benefits, pay is decent, time is flexible, great coworkers
Cons
Senior management, ideas don't go far, no room for creativity
Friendly people and employees always tried working as team
Airport baggage carrier (Former Employee) – Dallas-Fort Worth, TX – April 22, 2018
Management was great and everyone was like family. Very diverse employees. I had a great time getting to meet people who were from all over the world and learning other people’s perspectives on culture and how their world runs.
