1. Southwest
2. Continental
3. Delta
4. Jet Blue
5. Northwest
6. United
7. US Airways

I would like to hear what people who have actually worked for these companies think. How would you persuade your best friend to come work for the same airline you fly for and enjoy flying for? How would you dissuade your best friend to stay as far away from the airline you hate working for?

I would enjoy a civilized discussion with the pros/cons of your airline. Pile on my ranking if you disagree with the positions.
