Pros

Enjoyable job in a long term industry. You’ll walk 5-11 miles per day and lose weight easily if you want.

Cons

£12/hr shift Salary is too low for the responsibility and workload. Nobody receives a contract means it’s zero hour. You will at your own parking for months until your ID vetting pass arrives. Sore feet after 5-11 miles walking daily fast paced most of it. Under-staffed puts more pressure on everyone. Staff turnover is very high. A lot of broken equipment nobody seems to repair or take away. Lack of PPE means you’ll work in rain and get soaked regular. No ID means you’ll need accompanied all day but no staff to do this makes it harder to do your job. Not progressing as stuck on the same 2 types of aircraft from day one. Almost no perks. Nothing off flights, 20% discount off expensive airport food. Can’t use duty free for alcohol even when not working. Men’s toilets haven’t been cleaned since it was built by the looks of it

Pros

Learned a lot as an aircraft fueler, my manager at the time recognized my hard work and offered me a lead position. there was plenty of overtime and opportunities to explore different aspects of aircraft fueling. If I could I would definitely return to the company and get into management.

Cons

some employees I worked with made most of my shifts harder than they had to be. the job itself was easy and enjoyable for the time being even with call offs and no shows.
