Pros

Reasonable schedule.Okay benefits.Work can be satisfying and challenging. Great co workers and fellow aviators.

Cons

Pay for my level of experience is poor.Have to put in O/T to make ends meet.Poor middle management leadership.Blame culture sustains the company.Trying their best to run operations as cheaply as possible and yet they boast of great strides in safety. Too many Chiefs overseeing a very dedicated but fast burning out bunch of Indians.Upper management constantly takes fat bonuses and stock options but won't give a raise to their employees even though the company made money in the worst of economic times.If it weren't for the pilots' union we would be at the mercy of HR.Outdated pay and accounting system.Poor IT support.Too much workload on the frontlines just to make life easier for people up the chain.

Pros

Minus the pay is up to market the cons out weight any pro's by a long shot.

Cons

The Cons are way to many to list. This is the worse job I have ever had.

Pros

Good pay for my age, came in young making a decent salary, couldn't argue that with my new born.

Cons

- Standard 2% "Raise" annually, no matter what your senior manager promises to bump your pay to and "take care of you" for taking over a new department. -On Call responsibilities, every other week was a joke, saw my family for a couple hours a week at best as i was REQUIRED to work a MINIMUM of 65 hours each week outside of my on call responsibilities, my manager actually congratulated me on my first 150 hour paycheck, told me it showed how much of a good employee i was for picking up the slack. overtime was the only way to make any real money at this company with the dinky salary that was offered. -Got pulled into a meeting with my senior management staff and was told that because of my lack of focus and drive (wife had gotten job and i had cut my hours down to only 45 a week and regular on call duties) if i want a job i either have to decide that my employment is more important of that my family will take precedence, i chose the latter and immediately got moved from the department i had built from the ground up only to be expected to run my new position and still carry the other five employees in my old department. definitely an eye opener as to what really is important in a job.
