Pros
Flexibility does start to get better w time and for winter months you can work as little as 5 days a month bc people will pick up your shifts. But expect to work every holiday and many weekends for a longggg time. Pay is pretty good for how incredibly easy the job is. Flight benefits are amazing and literally the only reason I’m still here.
Cons
It’s nice if you want to fly under the radar but management is insanely difficult to get in touch with if you do need something. There are so many departments in the company that we as internal customers get treated like crap and no one seems to be on the same page. You will work weekends every single weekend. You will work every single holiday. The job is stressful in a way of never being in control and getting rerouted at the mercy of scheduling. But it’s so freaking easy and repetitive that you can feel yourself getting dumber by the minute. Same issues as any customer service job as far as dealing with passengers. Also it’s not glamorous and you will spent majority of your layovers in an airport hotel with about 12 hours to rest and that’s it. Also it will do weird things to your body and health. Also the sick policy is extremely old school and not flexible. We get 3 sick call outs in a rolling year. And they will threaten you if you have 2 and/ or are ever late.
