Great Benefits With Motivated People
Revenue Management Analyst - Pricing (Current Employee), Long Island City, NY – August 20, 2012
Pros: free standby flights, great pto flexibility, young and motivated workforce
Cons: limited advancement opportunities, salaries inconsistent with value provided to company
JetBlue's culture is the biggest draw, as a rapidly growing but still young company in the airline industry. The commercial team is responsible for driving nearly all of the revenue and making nearly all brand and marketing decisions. The revenue and marketing teams work closely to identify strengths and weaknesses in the commercial strategy, and use – more... each others' resources to make key business decisions to cement JetBlue's market share. – less

Fun and productive work place
In-Flight Crewmember (Former Employee), Long Island, NY – August 13, 2012
Pros: free layovers
Cons: 13 hour shifts or more
My typical day at work was checking in for my assignment. Meeting with the crew prior to reaching the aircraft. Ensured all passenger needs were met with regard to comfort and safety throughout their entire flight. The crew & I would ensure that first-aid kits and other emergency equipment were aboard and in working order, along with adequate supplies – more... of food, beverages, and blankets. I've learned a lot about safety and FAA regulations. My co-workers worked as a team to make our job fun and productive we would learn new things day to day. The most enjoyable part of the job was our layovers and traveling around the whole world and back. The hardest part of the job was the safety of our passengers. – less

Its a Trap!!! Run Forrest, Run!
Inflight Crew (current employee) (Former Employee), Based – August 8, 2012
Pros: flying benefits.
Cons: schedulings, no real security in the job.
I believe most of the possitive reviews here are made up by managment. The truth is that many employees are jetBlue knows that is not the best company to work for. jetBlue is all about creating this image of being the best airlines and brining back humanity to the airline but in the midst of their seach for perfection, they will sacrifice their employees – more... interest and benefits. Our benefits package is to expensive and their rumors of increase coming soon. The way crew services schedule the flight attendants schedule is so inconsistant and they don't look for the benefit of the employee but their own, they have rules and they will brake their own rules when ever its more convinience for them but if an employee try to bend over the rules, they can get fired. Sure, we get lots of J.D. Power awards but that is because the flight attedants needs to do a great job and we do, but its not because the company is a great company. jetBlue talk so much about their values but they have very little value. Some supervisor are great, but they will not support you if their managers is coming down on them and some manager and upper employees are all smile but we know is all a show. As long as you stay invisible, stay out of their way, do your job, don't call attention to yourself, then your job is secure. However, if you want to feel like you truely value, that your opinions are truely listening too, that you have a place you belong to, then jetBlue is not for you. Southwest treat their employees much better and give them more benefits. Upper management in jetBlue is fighting to keep a union away from them but its because they don't want to lose control but at the same time they are pushing its employees to want to have an union with all the unfairness we see. Unless there is a true change from the CEO to upper management, down to the supervisor things are just going to get worse, for the employees that is. – less

it seems to me jet blues employees are 50/50 on pros and cons. do you get evaluated each year for pay? how does the pay go along with no union."what im asking" is each a&p mech making the same pay?

Kells – October 18, 2012

I agree with you 100% I was a InFlight crewmember there for 5 years and they throw me under the bus like that. So RUN RUN RUN!!!!

Innovative, rewarding and challenging, always learning something new
Customer Service/Ground Operations (Former Employee), Fort Lauderdale, FL – July 14, 2012
Pros: free travel, uniform allowances, access to the internet while at work, the best breakroom ever!
Cons: working in inclimate weather, overweight luggage
Everday working at JetBlue was different even though the tasks performed where the same, the environment was fast paced, at times it could be challenging. You have to be aware of your surroundings at all times because there is traffic on the ramp and not just airplanes. You are on a team that prepares the ramp for the arrival of the aircraft, meets – more... the plane when it lands, off loads the baggage and at times, cargo. You the service the aircraft with water, hook up the airconditioner, communicate with the Captain the amount of baggage going on and where it is being loaded, the amount of fuel being administered as well as the amount of cargo if any. All this is done within a certain amount of time and done according to all FAA rules and regulations. There are times when you are working in extreme heat, rain and depending on what part of the country you are in, snow. You also may be driving beltloaders, tugs and/or the pushback which moves the aircraft. You get certified to perform most of the duties performed on the ramp and there are continuos training classes that are mandatory every month to keep you updated on things that may have changed or that have been added. For me one of the things I enjoyed most was the company really did invest in their employees. – less

Great place to work just there No Union
Load Planning Coordinator (Former Employee), Queens, NY – July 11, 2012
Pros: travel for free, great workers
Cons: no job security no union
Good place to work but there no job security they need a union. Human Resources doesn't help you in anyway and if someone in management doesn't like you they get rid of you. But other then that you meet great people working there I can say proudly that i love my jetblue co workers the work is tough at first but you get used to it like any job. Best – more... thing is to see and push planes out towards the runway. Every crew member is great and the great perk is that you can travel for free – less

lovingthefloridalife – August 27, 2012

Can anyone here give some insight as to what training is like at JetBlue University? Also what types of things are covered during the training process? (i.e., are crewmembers tested on all of the airport codes, are we trained on Sabre software etc.) Thank you.

Productive and Fun workplace
Airport Operations Customer Service (Former Employee), Jamaica, NY – June 2, 2012
Pros: free flights
Cons: not enough help by crewmembers
A typical day at work would be to prepare flights for departures, board customers, meet inbound flights, check in customers answer any questions customers may have, change flights for the customer. Great communication skills with customers and co-workers. Management needed improvement. Co-workers were helpful and good friends. The hardest part of the – more... job was working alone. The most enjoyable part of the job was boarding the customers and having early flights. A great company to work for. Overall Rating is 5 stars. – less
