Pros

•Best flight benefits with the AAG, and you can fly free on ANY airline. •Best contract for ANY regional. As a commuter, you are allowed 4 FREE nights at a hotel PAID by the company. Buddy up with someone else, and you've got 8 nights! •Strong connection with AA •Great FA's to work with, if they aren't the anti-social seniors who want the Embraer to be alone. •Great commuter policy •Growing everyday, new E175 aircraft and new bases to be opening very soon. •Easy flights •Nice hotels for commuting and layover •Pilots are amazing and fun to work with

Cons

•Training is miserable •Instructors during training can be rude and not fun to work with •Some FA's are not so nice. •Layovers are too short usually •Layovers are usually in crappy little towns with nothing to do (if you have time) •Short flights •VERY short turns •Only 2 bases (DFW and ORD at the moment)

Pros

-Training was a lot of fun, the instructors really knew what they were doing and it was my fave part of my experience with Envoy. - Most of the coworkers are sooo nice, even the people who have been there for many years are helpful to newer flight attendants and the union will always have your back. -Shawna in crew scheduling (DFW) is awesome and should be a model to the other schedulers to have some compassion in stressful situations. - the 175 plane is really nice and we are getting some awesome overnights on the plane lately. :) - They support commuters and are the only airline that will provide you with 4 free hotel nights in base to help you save money on a crash pad or other places to say. SOOO nice! -passengers of American Airlines are so nice. I rarely ever had encounters with rude or demanding passengers. -it is easy most of the time to choose the days off you want and move your schedule around.

Cons

My time on reserve has been horrible. - the pay is just horrible. I made average $1600 a month after taxes, which some people can live on but I cannot. You only get paid for 75 flight hours even though you can be at the airport for hours and hours unpaid- but this is most airlines. -Crew scheduling will work you to death even if there are plenty of available reserve flight attendants. Working 5-6 flights on the small 140/145 plane should be illegal, but especially in Dallas in the summer when the planes are 100 degrees inside and we are wearing wool uniforms. -The union cares more about the flight attendants than management does, and management and crew scheduling will look for any reason to penalize you or fire you for littlest things when life happens. -it is super intimidating to call in sick even when you are feeling terrible and do not want to be sick in front of passengers. They give you “points” for calling in sick that lead to termination even if you have a doctors note as proof you were in the hospital.

Pros

Paid Hotel (Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner), except lunch on your days off.

Cons

Unpaid training, unorganized system, they don't care about future flight attendants. I was a trainee flight attendant for Envoy and I came to training passing all of my exams, just to get kicked out almost a week away from graduating because an instructor lied to management and said that I have given them an attitude that I didn't give to them. I never received a point (warning) about the alleged behavior that I displayed. This instructor never approached me privately to have a discussion or gave me a warning but was quick to write an email complaint against me that I alleged gave them an attitude on two separate occasions. But other folks that were being rude and not focused on the training received either a warning or none about their behavior. They only pick and choose people who they personally like than actual people that work hard and displayed actual dedication into passing training and being a flight attendant. I tried to explain my side of the story and the flight attendant training manager didn't want to hear what I had to say about the situation. She said she always believes her instructors and not what the trainee has to say her. In my opinion this not the best way to be unbiased about a situation and see if they were any alternatives to resolve an issue before making a drastic decision in letting people go.
