Pros

You get to meet amazing colleagues. Staff travel can be great, depending on how you use it. New joiners' allowance (currently 1200€ in my base) helps new employees on paying the training course. It's very unlikely that you will spend the night outside of your accommodation, great for those who decide to settle in.

Cons

You have to pay for your uniforms and for your training course (organized by another society called crewlink, actual cost 2000€ if paid all at once or 2700€ if paid with your future salaries over the next 6 months). You don't always get to work in the place you asked for. Base transfers are possible but unlikely, depending on which base you're currently working. Even though people want to transfer in a specific base, it's very likely that Ryanair will send new cabin crew in that base instead of first transferring the ones that requested it (there's a number of factors that can be relevant for your transfer request to be approved or left in queue, but none of those are openly specified to the employees).

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.
