Allied Pilots Association

A typical day for me includes addressing various emails, coordinating with my superiors, and addressing any pilot activity that needs my attention. I have learned so much working here, as I’ve never worked for a union ever before. Management has been extremely supportive and educating me on how to support our pilots and other departments And been a great source of information whenever I need it. I have loved the workplace culture honestly. So many great people, no matter what department you’re in. If they were ever any bad ones, they don’t stay long as they show themselves clearly and usually self-destruct. I would say the hardest part of my job is during the board meetings that happen a few times a year. It’s game time whenever they’re here! But I don’t mind, because it allows me to rise to the occasion. The most enjoyable part of my job is the team that I work with. I have the best boss I’ve ever had and my colleague and others that I support Are great people. I love APA! 

APA is the first union I have worked for. It definitely has its differences from any other type of job, but I would say working for APA is better than any job I have previously had. The staff is well taken care of with great benefits, regular pay raises, bonuses, and extra time off. Promotions are very common, and in my almost 7 years at APA I have received 4 promotions! There are so many facets to the union, and if you have an interest in any of them APA is happy to support you learning about them. APA also helped me get certifications to advance my career. What started as just another admin job quickly became my career. I expect to be at APA until I retire!

What is the best part of working at the company?
Fantastic benefits and the pilots are super.  I cannot say the same for the office employees but a nice place to work.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
No policy or standards to follow.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The work environment is a bit chilly and the tenure employees are a little difficult to get to know.  The culture can be described as 'This is how  union works.'

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
The day was normally very busy and fast paced but not stressful.

Overall you’ll get paid well, but there’s no room for original thinking or forward thinking.  There’s a lot of career people there who fear for their jobs because of all the politics at play in the office.  So anyone with new ideas, suggestions, or better practices is treated as a threat, despite that not being the case.  There’s poor communication from managers to employees and no real structure in your training.  If you fail, the blame will be put squarely on you despite not really being taught properly

gaining experience in the workplace is something an internship needs to provide and I don't feel I got enough through this internship. This may have been because it was a brand new internship within the company so the first time isn't always perfect when trying out new things.

It’s a union. Loyalty to the union is rewarded. Loyalty to individuals is not. Elections change the leadership and if loyal to the losing team is believed to exist, you’re out. 

Best paying job I ever had. All blood money to keep you loyal. 

There is no work place culture. The name of the game is CYA. The national officers do not get a long. They pit staff against the other one. And staff is blamed in the end.

I really enjoy my job, the people I work with, and the benefits that come with the job. The atmosphere in my department is very relaxed, and the pilots I work with on a daily basis are very respectful and nice.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The family oriented environment.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Clients want immediate answers for more in-depth questions/concerns.

Allied Pilots is a great place to work. A wonderful work environment to work with great associates to work with. Your benefit and hourly wage are at the top of the pay list.
