Pros

Great company values, happy employees, once you successfully complete training, you're treated like family.

Cons

Even once you pass both interviews, you are not guaranteed the job. So make sure you have a back up plan just in case. A lot of waiting around to begin training, 38 dollars per day for a 4 week training class, very long hours, a lot of "craming" and very little time to sleep and study. I think it's not bad for a person that is retired and has money saved up or a young person that doesn't have bills, because aside from it being one of the coolest jobs ever, most people are there to get paid. However, the way that they go about training is as if it's a school, and you either fail or pass, if you fail you have to go back home and get your own ride there and hopefully you can pay your bills with the 38 dollars a day that they gave you. So my advice is to make sure you can accommodate you're entire personal life around that because if you fail a test retake or get too many counselings you will be getting sent home.

Pros

Working at JetBlue has a lot of benefits, especially for people who enjoy a fast-paced environment and interacting with others. One of the biggest advantages is the travel perks. Employees get standby flight benefits, which makes traveling much more affordable and gives people the opportunity to visit places they normally might not have been able to. Another major positive is the work environment and company culture. JetBlue puts a strong focus on teamwork, customer service, and treating employees with respect. Many crewmembers build close relationships with their coworkers because everyone works together during busy operations and challenging situations.

Cons

Working at JetBlue also comes with challenges, especially because the airline industry can be very demanding. One of the biggest downsides is the schedule. Many positions require working early mornings, overnight shifts, weekends, holidays, and long hours during delays or bad weather. The schedule can sometimes make it difficult to maintain work-life balance. Another challenge is dealing with stressful situations. Airport operations move very quickly, and employees often have to handle upset customers, flight delays, cancellations, or operational issues while still remaining professional and calm. During peak travel seasons, the pressure can increase significantly.
