Delta Air Lines reviews

No union protection for flight attendants which allows inept, inexperienced managers of flight attendants to act reactively and often punitively without any recourse or transparent review process. Seniority means way too much, especially considering crew won't retire but rather fly until they die, often with 40+ years of service! with some crew either embarrassingly overweight, lazy, poorly groomed and damaging to the brand compared to international competitor crew. Crew regularly are turning 70 years old and continue to hog the best trips or sell them to juniors. Terrible salary for first 5 years. Backstabbing employees write you up in an attempt to get ahead with management. Scheduling makes up the rules as they go along.

Progression is NOT based on Performance Stats, it is based on Favoritism and Bias from the Supervisors and Managers. No matter how hard you work, or improve or avoid the wrongs, you will still be targeted and neglected for progression. It is a desk-bound job, hence you'll feel chained to your desk and the company will squeeze every ounce of effort from you to contribute for the company's benefit. Break is 30 mins, Smart Break is 18 - 22 mins, Lunch is 1 hr. If you exceed the time frame, it will be considered as a verbal warning. Minutes cannot be rolled-over to the next day. Strict utilization of statuses making it restrictive to have the freedom to move about and recharge. The only ones with flexibility are the seniors with other non-call related positions where you'd see them giggle and have fun instead of you. Despite applying Leave in advance, it will NOT be guaranteed due to the Seniority chart that the company practices. Urgent Leave will be considered as a Correctional Action to be taken.
