British Airways Reviews

Pros

- Interesting, challenging and high impact roles offered early in one's career. Opportunity to explore all sorts of areas. - Very interesting and complex industry: events all around the world impact the airlines directly and that is both challenging and exciting. Complex eco-system of other airlines, travel agents, etc. - Good work life balance - Staff travel perks are great compared to not working for an airline, but not very good compared to working for other airlines (high price, limited availability) - A lot of nice, smart and expert people. A lot of middle to low-senior managers are really lovely.

Cons

- Travel industry is taking a massive hit with Covid so the future of jobs at the airline is uncertain. - Very dysfunctional, low empathy, ego-driven senior leadership with little incentive to maintain the long-term health of the airline. CEO is known to be a bully.

Pros

Travel around the world Hotels are mostly beautiful Great co-workers

Cons

Management are intense Company do not care for you on a personal level

Pros

Discounted flights. Though, your ticket is not confirmed. You only get on the aircraft if there is an empty seat. This policy still applies if you're on the other side of world trying to get home. There is a risk associated with the benefit.

Cons

Basics. Waterside might look nice in pictures but there is a reason why at the time of writing this they don't show the working spaces. They are really worn down. The toilets are the worst. There is rust on the basins and toilets. The floor tiles look like they could do with a deep clean.
