Pros

Stability, Health benefits, make some connections to help you get out once your contract expires

Cons

Don't believe the lies in the interview. Remember, NO decent aviation job requires you to sign a 2 year training contract. This place is like any other bottom feeder charter gig, signing a contract is a requirement. Be prepared to work 6 days with one ON CALL weekday day off. Which means you might or might not be called on your 'day off.' Routinely expect to work as many as 12 days in a row. Expect to see rampant favoritism. When things get slow DO NOT expect to have 2 days off a week. You will be asked to come in to do busy work. This place is/has honestly destroying my health and relationship. I can't wait for my contract to expire. Being home every night is NOT worth anything when you are at work 6 days a week from 8-5.

Pros

PTO, somewhat of a 'decent' salary

Cons

Management, both in the center & corporate. The work tasks are too demanding for the BS pay we get. The verbal abuse we get from pilots. Management has zero issue letting you know when you've done something wrong but if they do something wrong.. nothing happens? Oh I'm away from my computer for more than 15 minutes and now I'm getting scolded by not being on the phone? We can't speak freely. We have to watch what we say on the phone cause everything is recorded. The St. Louis location is a joke, with their petty front desk staff & gaslighting managers. The only people who are cool in the St Louis location are their PM's. This whole company needs a redo. Oh & if you're a biological female.. you're not safe if a transgender woman wants to use your bathroom.
