Pros

Fun face placed environment helps the day goes by fast and keeps your body moving. The free travel benefits are addictive :-) A lot of diversity. A great place to work PART TIME.

Cons

Starting salary is horrendous. Very difficult to live off of. Its the perfect job for young people going through college or retired folks who want something to do to keep busy. The happiest and most content employees we're those who worked there PART TIME. Not too much time invested at the airport yet still collecting full travel benefits (aka FREE travel priviledges)... It's very hard to move up in the company unless you "know somebody" and everything is seniority based even if they say it's not.

Pros

Working at JetBlue has a lot of benefits, especially for people who enjoy a fast-paced environment and interacting with others. One of the biggest advantages is the travel perks. Employees get standby flight benefits, which makes traveling much more affordable and gives people the opportunity to visit places they normally might not have been able to. Another major positive is the work environment and company culture. JetBlue puts a strong focus on teamwork, customer service, and treating employees with respect. Many crewmembers build close relationships with their coworkers because everyone works together during busy operations and challenging situations.

Cons

Working at JetBlue also comes with challenges, especially because the airline industry can be very demanding. One of the biggest downsides is the schedule. Many positions require working early mornings, overnight shifts, weekends, holidays, and long hours during delays or bad weather. The schedule can sometimes make it difficult to maintain work-life balance. Another challenge is dealing with stressful situations. Airport operations move very quickly, and employees often have to handle upset customers, flight delays, cancellations, or operational issues while still remaining professional and calm. During peak travel seasons, the pressure can increase significantly.
