Pros

I got to know some great people.

Cons

Probably up there with one of the worst companies to work for. You are merely a number to them - everything they do is a scare tactic to keep you in line. You can be called at the drop of a hat and must be on the aircraft within the hour - no questions asked, no excuses, no respect. Very difficult to live on the money you get the entire year round and I was based in the 2nd largest base. A friend of mine who was a Number 1 (lead crew member) had worked for the company for 7 years and never had a late, never had a sick day, never used all of her holidays. When her father died they insisted she present his death certificate for her to be able to take her own holidays to go to his funeral or she would have a meeting in head office - what a disgrace!! It will cost you a lot of money to do this job and you will come out of it with less money then you started with, trust me.

Pros

Decent salary, but still not enough, and not even comparable with other airlines, also the low cost ones.

Cons

Everything. The worst company I have ever worked for, 0, ZERO respect for the workers. Your are just a slave, that needs to sell as much scratch cards and products on board. If you don't do it? They will call you on your personal mobile and tell you that it's not acceptable and stuff like this, trying to scare you. I have seen people FIRED for this, and even for other stupid things. Also sometimes, it's SO unsafe! There's cabin crews, that I met, that literally don't know anything about this work, not even closing the doors properly. Absolutely a disaster, but yeah, you just need to sell as much as possible, who cares about the rest.. Also, you are not getting paid for OT, it doesn't even exist, usually you do 4 flights in a day, you could start at 5:00 AM (It means that you need to get up at 3:30 maybe, and be at the airport on time), and get back home after 5/6 PM, it happened to me a lot of times, and my health, was absolutely a disaster, I had to leave because I had a lot of medical conditions due to flying too much. I couldn't do that anymore.
