Pros

Being fair, salary is beyond fair and well above market.

Cons

Where should I start? - Toxic behavior from managers and peers. - Gossip culture that leads to people being protected by managers if you're a good bootlicker. - There is not an onboarding process nor clear procedures. - Nothing is documented and most of the things seem to be working just by faith. - In the Madrid office, the HR treatment towards me has been the WORST I've had in my career. Zero empathy and lots of hypocrisy. - Agile methodologies? What's that? You won't find that in here but the oposite. - Only benefit beyond a good salary is "discounts" on flight tickets that are already cheap for everyone outside the company. - And last but not least, there is not room for innovation. They only want you to keep as much as they already have even if there are useless, disorganized and unpolished things.

Pros

Decent salary, but still not enough, and not even comparable with other airlines, also the low cost ones.

Cons

Everything. The worst company I have ever worked for, 0, ZERO respect for the workers. Your are just a slave, that needs to sell as much scratch cards and products on board. If you don't do it? They will call you on your personal mobile and tell you that it's not acceptable and stuff like this, trying to scare you. I have seen people FIRED for this, and even for other stupid things. Also sometimes, it's SO unsafe! There's cabin crews, that I met, that literally don't know anything about this work, not even closing the doors properly. Absolutely a disaster, but yeah, you just need to sell as much as possible, who cares about the rest.. Also, you are not getting paid for OT, it doesn't even exist, usually you do 4 flights in a day, you could start at 5:00 AM (It means that you need to get up at 3:30 maybe, and be at the airport on time), and get back home after 5/6 PM, it happened to me a lot of times, and my health, was absolutely a disaster, I had to leave because I had a lot of medical conditions due to flying too much. I couldn't do that anymore.
