Pros: flight benefits, if you didn't mind physical work, it was an awesome job
Cons: limited hours, no health benefits unless full time, no full time avail. ever without relocation
My job wasn't brain surgery. If you didn't mind being a worker(like me), it was what to love. Marshall aircraft in/out of gate, unload/load bags, run bags between flights, only having to put up with the different weather situations. Like I said, not brain surgery. One of Only two major complaints were the ready reserve situation does not give you the
– more... ability to move up to full time as they tell you it might. At Least not without a self paid relocation that you can apply to if avail. Only 20 hrs a week with a max of 1300 hrs a year wasn't enough. Other complaint was management in my city was lacking. micromanagers abound and favoritism runs rampant but that was just my city. Cannot speak for others. Even with those cons, I loved it enough, I wish I could return. Air lines jobs get in your blood. My situation then didn't allow a relocation or second job, now it does. Too bad my city and as it seems, no city will ever again be hiring for full time handler jobs. It's a great place, if you can find your way in the door. – less
