Pros

Flight Centre hires some phenomenal people. So some of your coworkers are great.

Cons

- FC is deeply nepotistic and promotes based on popularity rather than merit, to the point of ignoring reported abusive behaviour when considering candidates for promotion. - Management will often engage in predatory sales tactics better left back in the 80’s, including teaching staff how to manipulate elderly customers and otherwise vulnerable customers into paying much more than they need to for flights so that the manager can meet their shop targets. - Margins are often entirely too high and bullying of the customer can follow should they not fall for the pitch. - Good for a first ever job. You know, the one you remind yourself you never want to go back to when you have a less awful job in the future.
