Pros

Have some good leaders- at base their is some genuine caring for employees

Cons

Several narcisstic and micromanaging leaders including COO. They ruin people's lives and careers without caring as long as they get what they want. Strange dynamic. Virgin Atlantic was a bad move, Alaska is too old school, slow to respond and risk adverse to handle this merger.

Pros

Good work environment and culture. Leadership is strong.

Cons

Terrible compensation practice. Outdated approach, especially with corporate back office roles. Leaders have zero say in salaries. The compensation team has an outdated approach to pay and are not open to stay with the current market trends and challenging to partner with. There needs to be a willingness to change and align with the local job market. There needs to be an openness to listen to leaders' input. Its hard to hire and hard to attract retain good employees when we are competing with local employers in the Seattle area that offer better pay. It is very challenging to work with a compensation leader and team that do not listen.
