Pros

Close knit community great reserve schedules 13-16 days off a month great teammate environment

Cons

With the good comes the bad... If you commute, it can be challenging since VX does not fly everywhere. Not being able to commute on your own airlines can pose some commuter problems. Watch out for burned out JFK flight Attendants that hate their job- they try to make new flight attendants miserable. Watch out for Megan and her click. ( it's a small base and they know they can get away with it)

Pros

They are a forward thinking, progressive company. Coworkers are awesome, customers are usually awesome, and the uniforms are really, really great.

Cons

The price of living in all of Virgin's bases (NYC, LA, SF) are way higher than the starting pay is, so save up your money before committing to a job with them. Unless you're working 40 hours a week, you might struggle to pay your rent.
