Pros

Pay’s better than average, and since it’s a remote job, you can live wherever you want. You get to keep all the hotel and airline points (about 230 nights in hotels a year). Plus, the health insurance is solid.

Cons

There’s no sick pay. The schedule is 8 days on, 6 off, with 4 set start times—3 of them end pretty late since you’ll be on duty for up to 14 hours a day. Lots of night flying and long nights hanging around FBOs—it kind of comes with the territory (Medevac). We only fly about 20 hours a month, and most flights are short—around 30 minutes—so it’s not great if you're trying to build hours. Moving into the left seat takes a long time and isn’t the easiest process.

Pros

Some passionate people who work hard You can make a big impact because the company is small but you will need to set boundaries hard and fast.

Cons

-Pay lags behind industry -Relocation details arent clear -HR stymie's career growth -Chaotic organization with conflicting goals and timelines -Many burnt out folks -Some in senior leadership dont listen to those below them. There is significant burn out in manufacturing due to unending overtime and continuous weekend overtime, with no end in sight. -looking back if i could talk to myself before starting here I would talk myself out of it.
