Pros

Good roster-5 on 3 off and always return home at the end of shift. Pay was always on time. It’s an easy job and quiet fun. If you can make it through a year in Ryanair you have proved yourself and any airline will have you.

Cons

You are simply a number. Highly ridiculed and meetings will be organised if you phone in sick, apparently having a chest infection during a global pandemic is an insufficient reason to phone in sick so that was a warning! You’ll be told in the assessment day that your salary will be between 14-18k.... it most definitely won’t be. I was constantly paid different amounts ranging from 600-1200. Training conditions were terrible( accommodation) and there was no one to help any students if they got locked out of their room, bullied etc the company didn’t care. You will often get emails about not selling enough scratch cards even though the flights are empty during a pandemic. We were forced to do multiple services during flight exposing our selves more to the risk of infection when most airlines cancelled food service Ryanair promoted by doing 2-3 services instead of one. They Crewlink don’t care for the employees, pay is bad, your staff travel is often more expensive than standard tickets so that isn’t any help either. Avoid Crewlink contracts! Ryanair was a nice airline to work for but not if you’re employed by Crewlink.

Pros

- Provided me with an opportunity to move abroad. - Provided me with the opportunity to work even when I did not have much experience nor a college degree.

Cons

- I had to pay for a training course in full and in advance. Up to 3000 euros in order to get the job. - The training course was a nightmare, we were psychologically abused. They did not treat us with respect. Students were having anxiety attacks due to the pressure. - If we did not pass the training course we lost all the 3000 euros and the job offer. - The contract that we got paid us by the hour. Hence, during the winter when we only worked 40 hours in 1 month we could not even afford our rents. (This was not explained in advance) - The contract stated that we only got paid during the hours we were flying. All the work done on the ground was not counted. - Our preferences did not count for anything when they assigned us to a base (we did not have a say on where we wanted to live and work)
