Productive and great workplace environment especially at a small base
Captain, B-737 (Former Employee) - Guam, GU - November 29, 2023
Strong leadership that backs you up and tremendous focus on safety--the Captain has the unquestioned final authority concerning whether or not the plane is airworthy. Great pay and great benefits and lots of opportunity for advancement and great quality of life also--highly recommend UAL

A great job with wonderful benefits with great pay, Thanks to union labor groups.
Certified SERT (2015) - Station Emergency Response Team (Former Employee) - Guam - November 29, 2023
What is the best part of working at the company?Benefits and Healthcare... Worst thing is their lack of compassion for frontline employees. They are not a company of their word. What is the most stressful part about working at the company?Their midline management supervisor level and above. Favorable employees reap favorable decisions. Your coworkers and the surrounding drama from within. What is the work environment and culture like at the company?Toxic and full of favoritism. Really a negative reflection of the management from station to station. Lack of accountability for leadership training or lack thereof. What is a typical day like for you at the company?Go to work to earn a paycheck and survive.

Fast paced and organized
Customer Service Representative (Former Employee) - Denver, CO - November 27, 2023
Fast pace and organized. Part-time can feel like a full-time job because company is strict on time. Can pick up as many shifts as you want so extra money is always available

Jobs at United Airlines
Awful place to work
Inflight Supervisor (Former Employee) - Newark, NJ - November 20, 2023
United Airlines has faced criticism for its treatment of employees, with reports of poor working conditions and labor disputes. Employees have raised concerns about low wages, inadequate benefits, and challenging work schedules. The airline has been involved in disputes with labor unions, leading to tensions and strikes. Complaints also extend to issues like job insecurity and alleged mistreatment. These factors contribute to a negative perception of United Airlines' employment practices, impacting the morale and well-being of its workforce. It's essential for companies to prioritize a supportive and fair work environment to foster a positive relationship with employees. Addressing these concerns can not only improve the overall employee experience but also enhance the airline's reputation and customer satisfaction.

Great Experience. Just not for me.
Flight Attendant (Former Employee) - Denver, CO - November 19, 2023
United Airlines was a great company to work for. Benefits and pay are great. The lifestyle change for me was the biggest hiccup. The most enjoyable part of the job was traveling (of course) but also making life long friends throughout your career.

Awesome once a line holder
Flight Attendant (Current Employee) - San Francisco, CA - November 14, 2023
Love working as a flight attendant! It can be challenging as a reserve flight attendant but once a line holder it’s a whole different ball game. I highly recommend applying!

Good coworkers and little bit of flexibility
Customer Service Representative (Current Employee) - Honolulu, HI - November 10, 2023
Most of coworkers are nice! If your seniority is low, you cannot get a good schedule but you can always trade your shift with other coworker if you need a day off.
