Delta employees help connect people each and every day. This mission also guides our relationship with our people: when we take care of one another, you can take care of our customers – and together, we can make Delta a better place to work and fly.
We believe Delta's success should be your success, which is why Delta shares more profit with employees than any company in the industry and has historically provided industry leading total compensation across the board.
We rely on, recognize, and reward the industry leading performance you deliver. From industry leading total compensation, including unrivaled profit-sharing, to caring for your physical, emotional, social, and financial wellbeing, Delta supports you at every step of your climb. We deliver industry leading pay for industry leading performance. That means historically more cash compensation for you than our closest global competitors, American and United, in every workgroup. Total compesntation includes:
Delta believes that all employees should have a stake in the success you help make possible. That’s why Delta shares a much larger percentage of profits with employees than American and United – which in turn means larger payouts for each employee.
Delta's 2023 profit sharing expense of over $1.4 billion is greater than all of our peer airlines combined ($681 million for United and $351 million for American). All eligible Delta employees also received the same 10.40% payout, equal to more than one month's pay. American and United offer varying payouts per workgroup and most of their employees will receive payouts ranging from about 1% to 9% depending on the workgroup.
A fundamental part of Delta's culture is that we all share in the success of the airline – the success made possible by Delta people. That is why our profit sharing program – which will pay out over $1.4 billion in 2023 profits to employees – continues to share more than any other U.S. company's program, airline or not.

The Delta Care and Scholarship Funds Inc. is a 501(c)3 Nonprofit available for Delta people. Whether taking care of our customers or each other, Delta people specialize in caring for others. It's the Delta difference. Helping fellow employees or retirees when facing a sudden, unexpected personal crisis or providing scholarships to help somebody else realize their dream of upskilling and creating new paths for careers, are some of the ways Delta people are reaching out to make a difference.
