Great staff travel benefits in a diverse workplace.

Flight Attendant / Team Leader (Current Employee) - Brisbane QLD - 26 April 2020

Great staff travel benefits. Diverse working culture but still needs some improvement with just reporting processes. Good remuneration but with too much disparity in wages among staff in frontline roles which can cause some contention. Flexible working arrangements for some staff on the original Flight Attendant award. There has been some improvement in support for mental health issues among staff. There is excellent service and safety training which ensures quality of services delivered to our customers.

Strong iconic Australian brand

Flight Attendant (Current Employee) - Sydney International Airport NSW - 1 April 2020

Being a cabin crew member, you need to have a passion for being with people and an ability to excel in customer service. I take pride in being one of the many faces of Qantas Airways. Each day is different as I meet new people, which can include the crew I work with. The flight attendant role is fast paced during boarding and service, and can be quite and restful other times. The most difficult part of my job is having constant jet lag. The most enjoyable side of my job is travelling to new destinations and experiencing new cultures and food.
