Benefits Questions

Hello,

 

I am considering a position at SWA, but had a few questions about benefits that I was hoping the community could assist with:

 

Does SWA give annual raises?

Is the health insurance reasonably priced?

Is there a required retirement contribution amount?

Can you book/reserve your seats on your “free flights”, or are you only able to get on flights with open seats?

How many PTO days do employees receive?

 

Thanks in advance!

Solution

1. Yes.

2. Yes.

3. No.

4. The basic answer, open seats.

5. Depends on your union and there is a little more to it than just straight 'days' or 'hours'. Depending on your group, it can be easy to trade shifts/ give them away. 

 

I hope this helps!
