How convenient

Now that they need us desperately, they suddenly have the money to give us all a 17 percent raise? Where was that money hiding before now, I wonder? I'm not complaining, mind you, I just find it funny how when we asked for a raise, there was no way... — read more

Bad Technology Group at AA

As a contractor at AA I can tell you their technology departments are the worst managed groups of all the airlines. There are no real architects or planners, and the IT managers I worked with are disorganized and abusive. They promote the worst... — read more

Our competitors

They all seem to be more efficient than AA but more importantly they actually fire poorly performing employees and managers. In 20 years we’ll probably still be here but we will just be irrelevant compared to others. I’m so glad I’m getting out soon... — read more

This is just a reprieve

All the people who are about to be called back should make sure to be really prepared for April, because it's likely they'll just find themselves without a job once again. AA did this after the first stimulus round. As soon as the benefits expired... — read more

Severance at American Airlines?

What is the usual package? I don't work here, just trying to see if we are getting screwed over by our employer (because it certainly feels like it.)

Can we count on business travellers?
