Pros

5/3 working schedule, which is rare in aviation. It has always been like this, since my first day. Unlimited amount of stuff tickets (you still pay airport taxes) Tickets for family and friends (6 per year). Closest family unlimited as well. Easy to get in.

Cons

Long shifts. Sector pay is only for flight time, not from check-in to check-out. A lot of hours of delay get no payment. No extra payment for airport duty. On standby report time is only one hour. No transport compensation on late arrival. Get threatened if calling in sick too much. No winter uniform provided. Encouraged toxic behaviour from seniors. No layovers. Low pay.

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.
