"My first 18 years on my job at Continental Airlines before we merged with United from 1992 to 2010, I had glorious days, and extraordinary pay, competent, and confident, loving every minute, and could hardly wait to go into work the next day. Until the 2 airlines merged, United/Continental Airlines."

"A nice place to work at if you love travelling. A big pool of interesting problems in optimization and statistics domains. The industry still has a lot of opportunities for improvement.The co-workers and the managers are very nice. Good work/life balance. The only drawback is the average salaries and the vacations. Chicago also is a great place to live at, specially in summer. If you are not a US Citizen, they do a good job in sponsoring for Green Card."

"Was a good company with many opportunities to participate in airplane development with Boeing, Goodyear, Goodrich. Also worked on Lean Six Sigma projects before it was popular."

"I've worked for United Airlines since Feb 2014."

"I've been in good teams and love my work. Benefits are generous but could be better. If you are active in finding opportunities they are there to grab. Still finding its way since merger. I came from Continental side. Merger has been a challenge."
