Pros

I can't see any advantages to this position

Cons

I had a 4 minutes Interview with a person which was the same person I saw on the Cabin Crew introductory video on Youtube for some reason. What can I say... She was obvs trained to act bubbly even though I could sense she was clearly putting on an act and a fake smile. She went on saying she had (3000 interviews a week??? ) when I asked her about all the negative reviews for Ryanair which not only did not reply to my question but also sounded passive aggressive and condescending. ( she did still have a big smile on her face when saying that ) kudos for the mind programming Ehhrm....acting, sorry. She asked me to cut my hair? and cut the Interview when I told her I have a tattoo ( which can be easily concealed btw). So to get this straight, people need to look neat for a DISCRIMINATORY company that asks you to RELOCATE and move between airports at your own costs, lets you pay for everything ( even food whilst on the plane) DOESN'T PAY MINIMUM WAGE ( 1000£ pm for full days work or more as crew is only paid from the time plane lifts off, all the waiting and faffing around is NOT PAID or reimbursed). You'd have to be desperate to do that. Also, if you REALLY want to do this, Go ahead but you need at least 2 grands for the training and related costs. If you are lucky you can break even with the investment in 5 months and only then start earning below minimum wage. I don't understand how this company still operates and I don't know why people are not aware of this when booking flying tickets.

Pros

I got to know some great people.

Cons

Probably up there with one of the worst companies to work for. You are merely a number to them - everything they do is a scare tactic to keep you in line. You can be called at the drop of a hat and must be on the aircraft within the hour - no questions asked, no excuses, no respect. Very difficult to live on the money you get the entire year round and I was based in the 2nd largest base. A friend of mine who was a Number 1 (lead crew member) had worked for the company for 7 years and never had a late, never had a sick day, never used all of her holidays. When her father died they insisted she present his death certificate for her to be able to take her own holidays to go to his funeral or she would have a meeting in head office - what a disgrace!! It will cost you a lot of money to do this job and you will come out of it with less money then you started with, trust me.
