Southwest has historically been one of the most beloved airlines in the world by both employees and customers. Their philosophy has been quite simple: do right by employees. If they keep their employees happy, their employees will keep their customers happy, leading to strong customer loyalty and repeat business. They never tried to nickel and dime employees or customers, unlike every other airline and had customer-friendly policies regarding cancellations and rescheduling. In fact, Southwest proudly had a record of never laying off even a single employee in their entire 50 year history, but all of that recently changed. Activist investors have taken control of Southwest and they have been aggressively changing the company for the worse including charging for checked bags, laying off employees, and pulling back on perks across the board. This video explains what made Southwest successful in the first place and how these activist investors are ruining a customer favorite.
