BOTH made lots of money for their shareholders and got very rich themselves in the process. You can both take care of employees AND make shareholders a tidy sum. It’s not a binary choice.

It was like a bad time share proposal....but all the sell without the reward.
I still get emails asking to update my application with AS. I'm assuming so I can be offered an interview with Horizon once again.
At the time I lived in Seattle and really wanted to work for AS. Never got the chance so I moved on. I wish all you guys luck and hopefully you can make it a place people will be happy at.

I got an email asking me to confirm my presence at an interview with Alaska two days later. Assuming I had missed a prior email, I inquired about later interview dates, but said I could make it if it couldn’t be moved. The next day, I jumped on an airplane to Seattle and when I landed, received an email stating that confirmation had been sent to the wrong person with my first name. Awesome sauce.
