Exit opportunities- Apple, Amazon or American airlines? The first two are operations related roles and last one is corporate strategy. Salary is a bit higher in tech but cost of living is higher in CA

Not to mention Dallas has an extremely low cost of living believe it or not - there is no state income tax and it's Texas where everything is big so you can easily get a 4000 sq foot house for $300-$400k depending an area or if you are single a cool loft In Uptown. People are super nice ... used to live there and it was great.

MBA plus 2 years as SA. Worked on tech and airlines engagements and wouldn't mind either of them. I am concerned about the work life balance at both the tech companies. It's almost like picking a role vs. brand. Strong brand name for Apple and Amazon but like the corporate strategy role in airlines.

Heard Amazon is a body sweat shop. That being said if you want to build your CV for a couple of years it would probably work. Apple probably carries most weight but the big Q is which industry you are interested in.

like

AA role for sure. Especially with the news lately that warren buffet/other investors are bullish on airlines- I'm guessing there's also an attractive employee stock purchase package

I interned for Amazon, please speak with other people. NO ONE really likes there job, they do it because it pays well but they lack what other high paying tech firms offer, managers who will work with you and make you better, collaborative thinking, free food, group outings, and did I say no free food? Don't let that HUGE sign in bonus fool you, it did when my friends signed the offer and they regret it and are already looking for other jobs

Presumably non rev D3. But that doesn't mean it's worthless- my friend has been at Delta for about a year and a half now and goes on international trips all the time - frequently getting upgraded because the first class seats aren't sold

Not Amazon

Free AA flights or delta?

What's your offer at AA if you don't mind me asking? Seems to me it was quite low- I got an offer as a revenue analyst there out of undergrad and it was 60k.

Free flights or free non rev flights which means like flying standby all the time? The latter is basically what flight attendants get.

My mother was a flight attendant so I flew non rev a lot. I think it's harder nowadays as flights are more full. I can remember plenty of days hanging out in the airport hoping the next flight would have availability.
