She must work 24/7
Nope, Nope, Nope


She said 80 per cent of the time she wants to drop her kids at school and get home by 6pm.

She said Joyce told her. "I'm offering you the job of a lifetime. . . I don't want you to do the job the way it was done in the past.

Ah yes, the old work-life balance at Jetstar.

At the top, perhaps...for the workers, not so much.

The only way employees at Jetstar can achieve a healthy work-life balance is to go part-time. Quite difficult given the less than stellar remuneration and the high cost of living in most JQ bases.

It's more of a figure-head CEO role than a real hands on one. Generally they surround themselves with onerous layers of managers and outsource any actual decision making to some group think tank so when it all screws up they just say they were acting on advice of some report that a 'committee' came up with.

I agree with the sentiment above. How can anyone hold two board positions and be a CEO of an airline and suggest that they are on top of everything.

That is unless they are about to resign and just teeing up a few retirement jobs.
