Benefits (discounts on many venues, shops and bars, tickets, deals on hotels, medical), salary if you are coming to the role from outside and can negotiate, summer all year around, multicultural environment.
Cons
If you progress (career wise) internally you get much smaller salary compared to someone else who comes from outside to do the same job. Almost no chance for career progression - important who you know.

Cons
volatile shift changes and turnover rate of managers
- Former Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
The overall pack was amazing. The money is good and it's all for yourself because you don't pay taxes. Accomodation is provided or housing allowance is paid in addition to the salary. We stayed in overall nice hotels and most layovers were nice although most of them were 24 hours. We had a lot of discounts at stores and restaurants... Abu Dhabi is a nice city to live in
Cons
Long working hours with sometimes minimum rest hours between flights. This was exhausting and you reach a point where you can't get out of bed. The company's vision has been unclear for the last three years and constant change in management and restructuring affected the business and the passengers' experience. Which meant it was up to the crew to defend the company's reputation onboard the aircraft when passengers got onboard and complained about the constant changes. There was a culture of bullying which unfortunately was not addressed much. Hierarchy is everything on board and if the captain tells you off for no reason, nothing you can do about it because his word weighs more than yours. There was no pay raise for four years. Most Cabin managers hold their posts because they have been with the company for so many years. Passengers can tell you off, be rude to you, shout at you and call you names and you still can't defend yourself because if you speak back, you'll probably end up with a warning (passengers are always right in this company)
