Svantaggi
Despite a great culture, the leadership at JetBlue plays nothing but favorites. Crewmembers are told they need to forge their own path forward and to make yourself marketable. This is impossible to do when Crewmembers are promoted based on who they know, who stays out the latest and what project you're on. Trainings and advancement opportunities are evasive. For example, they have a POL program (Principles of Leadership) and even though some may solidly demonstrate these skills, you are only allowed to attend the program if you have "manager" in your title. The Digital team constantly falls over their own feet. Leadership loves to demean and belittle Crewmembers who show initiative (unless again, you're part of t his exclusive group). Crewmembers who work in Salt Lake City (reservation agents) work full time at home unless they've abused their privileges. IT Crewmembers are afforded 1 day a week even if you've been on a call in the middle of the night because someone can't print a boarding pass or book a reservation. During overnight deployments they are pretty good not "requiring" Crewmembers to be in the office right away but it means a lot to them if you do show up. So much information is siloed into individual Cremwmbers so if that person goes on vacation, you end up being screwed if you need anything relevant to their area. Flight benefits are nice but to make it part of your overall compensation is ignorant. If you have relatives or family it's often tricky to fly anywhere.
