Pros
You get flight benefits with some of the major airlines depending on where you're based. You meet a lot of great people every day and work with great people as well. I haven't met a flight crew that I didn't get along with.
Cons
The pay is less than industry standard, yet they expect above standard performance. You're typically gone 4 to 6 days each week with sometimes only 1 day off between trips. Many people call in sick just to get a break and spend time with family and friends. You feel little to no sense of value to the company. To them the flight crews can all be replaced easily. The only time you hear from management is when you do something wrong. Job recognition and praise is extremely rare.
