Pros

Biggest airline in Europe. A lot of bases to choose from. Very easy to get in. Different job than usual. A lot of opportunities to grow inside the company. Some opportunities to change base. International, young and cosmopolitan environment.

Cons

Money is not the best (really bad 1st year when paying the training course). No free/cheap flights for employees. Very bad working atmosphere (a LOT of sales pressure). Hard working times (waking up at 4am or arriving home at 1h in the morning). Bad training/preparation. Training course is paid.

Pros

Decent salary, but still not enough, and not even comparable with other airlines, also the low cost ones.

Cons

Everything. The worst company I have ever worked for, 0, ZERO respect for the workers. Your are just a slave, that needs to sell as much scratch cards and products on board. If you don't do it? They will call you on your personal mobile and tell you that it's not acceptable and stuff like this, trying to scare you. I have seen people FIRED for this, and even for other stupid things. Also sometimes, it's SO unsafe! There's cabin crews, that I met, that literally don't know anything about this work, not even closing the doors properly. Absolutely a disaster, but yeah, you just need to sell as much as possible, who cares about the rest.. Also, you are not getting paid for OT, it doesn't even exist, usually you do 4 flights in a day, you could start at 5:00 AM (It means that you need to get up at 3:30 maybe, and be at the airport on time), and get back home after 5/6 PM, it happened to me a lot of times, and my health, was absolutely a disaster, I had to leave because I had a lot of medical conditions due to flying too much. I couldn't do that anymore.
