Pros

Top-notch airline to work for. Has quite an pioneering mindset. Good quality products and very international environment. Pay is decent, but as with most other airlines on the low end when you are on a station level.

Cons

Biggest minus point is the fact that outstation staff have a limited career progression. Meaning, it is hard to internally transfer to the headoffice, but also it is very hard to move up the ladder within an outstation. Lots of talent is lost and the gap between management and junior staff is increasing by age and experience.
