Pluspunten
Easy to get a job as cabin crew here and a good foot in the door of the industry if you wanted to work for a better airline in future. Things have gone downhill from when I first started working at easyJet for new joiners BUT the uniform is much better than it once was!! The pay is generally pretty good. On-board commission Free tea/coffee/water and meals on duty.
Minpunten
Having to pay £181.21 for uniforms for females, males pay a little less Having to pay for referencing service (£155.00) for your airside ID pass! Paying £100 for staying in the training hotel for three weeks All of these are deducted over the months from salary. They only offer fixed term contracts for new joiners, if you leave before your contract ends you have to pay a bond! This starts at £600 and decreases by £100 each month. No control over roster Low annual leave allowence (10 days per 6 months plus four days public holidays) Long days (12 hours plus sometimes) Minimum rest between flights (11 hours!) Very few night-stops, just there and backs, sometimes four flights a day. It's just like working on a flying bus or flying Tesco! Poor management Treated like kids, especially during training Tidying the cabin on turnarounds
