Salt Lake City, UT (US)

Current Employee – been working at JetBlue full-time for more than 3 years

ProsMany of the call center positions can be worked from home. The characteristics of "Safety, Caring, Passion, Integrity, and Fun." Health benefit options for part-timers. Flight benefits.

ConsIf you like working with others or getting out of the house to go to work, a call center position may not be for you. You may have to start out as a part-time employee to get your foot in the door.

New York, NY (US)

Current Employee – been working at JetBlue full-time for more than 10 years

ProsWe have some of the best people to work on a day to day basis.

ConsLack of any leadership from the top. Alot of talk with no follow thru. Seems they are just wanting to set the company up for sale. While the top gets $$$$ they rob the workers of benefits and pay. Top brass had 46% increases in pay and benefits 2010 to 2011 yet they increase the costs on the average employee benefits by a wide margin.

Advice to Senior ManagementResign if you cannot figure out how to truly lead a fine group of people. Read a few good books on leadership to get a hint. So far you have lost 25 a share in market cap and you think your doing good. Really!!!

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Former Employee – worked at JetBlue full-time for more than 3 years

ProsGood Pay, good benefits. Good people.

ConsWork can be limited due size of Flight Attendant bases. limits your ability to make money, and fully enjoy the flight attendant life style. Schedule based on seniority and hire date, not on work performance.

Being a flight attendant is a thankless job. Your customers rarely appreciate you, and that can wear on you.

Former Employee – worked at JetBlue

ProsFriendly people
Free flights
Can leave at 5, no questions or issues

ConsVery little time off, does not observe most federal holidays
flights may be free, but you have little time to use them
it's just about the work - you have to socialize
manufactured, as opposed to spontaneous, fun so to live up to the "fun value"

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company
