"I am naturally a fun-loving, free-spirited person who loves to be around people—helping, serving, and building bonds. Our Culture is every one of these things and more. Southwest has given me the opportunity to be me. I get to turn it all the way up and enjoy myself at work."

"For over 16 years, I’ve had the privilege of working for one of the most respected brands in the world. It is the People of Southwest and the ability to influence Customers that energizes and motivates me to deliver excellent results. I am surrounded by talented, passionate professionals from diverse backgrounds. In the Corporate Sales Department, we are building a Team of trusted advisors tasked with establishing relationships with corporate travel decision-makers, co-creating long term partnerships, driving value to our Customers, and contributing revenue to Southwest’s bottom line."
Kevin Sullivan
Senior Director of Southwest Business
"From the moment I stepped foot on the campus for my first interview, I knew Southwest was different than all the rest. It is extremely rewarding to be able to respond to the reoccurring question about how I like working for Southwest with, 'I love it! It is the best Company I have ever worked for.' You don’t feel you are actually 'working;' you feel you are an important part of this great Company."
