Decent salary, well organised each dept and positions job responsibilities.

Dislikes

Gangway and restaurant door duties for dept heads, No HR support on issues and felt unsupported and unhelpful.

Likes

Work culture and crew facilities.

Dislikes

Every company has people who are sometimes dominant and everyone is in someway to their juniors...however i dont belive people should have different perks just because they are from a different country like from asia and not a white people country even dough their work and position is the same...it is racist in someway.

Work Details

If we are appropriately staffed then its great to work but last contract we were under staffed and no one seemed to care unless we put it in the ILO about how we were doing a job for one extra person for free

Every company has pros and cons, for some people the salary that HAL offers might be less but it was fine with me.

Work Details
