lower level positions, gradually advancing their careers as they gain more experience within the

former Atlas Air Inc’s captain who was based in Miami, Florida considers good salary and
compensation packages as some of the pros associated with working in Atlas Air. The

position.

company’s 401k savings plan, which would be beneficial to them in the long run. It is also

growth and advancement within the company. The only challenge that is posed with career
growth as outlined by one of the company’s former employees is that once a person has attained
a career peak in the company, he is forced out by pressure from fellow senior employees. It was
on this basis that the employee, n his review of Atlas Air, discouraged people from applying for
any position within the company.

consider the company as a good place to work. Apart from a few conflicts among staff members
in particular subsidiaries of the company, there is a strong belief that Atlas Air Inc is indeed a
