      Approves of CEO

      I worked at Flight Centre Travel Group full-time for more than 5 years

      Pros

      Uncapped commission, good perks and can meet some great people (staff and clients). The teams I worked in were all great and everyone worked hard to meet targets.

      Cons

      - Can't survive on the base wage alone. - Finance system could definitely be better. It's all about Profit, Growth and Change. Change was constant (wages, targets, expectations, processes) and no real discussion with staff prior to ensure these changes would be effective. The communication of changes were dependent on Area Leader/ Team Leader/ Support who rolled this out. Afterhours assistance calling on weekends or nights if there are any issues makes it hard to "switch off" from the job.
