Pros
It is a growing, exciting , work environment. I am on a first name basis with every employee in my base. Aircraft are being added to the fleet, new cities to the route map, and more employees are being hired. They have fulfilled every promise and commitment made to me when I was hired. Modest, but significant Christmas bonus this year, unexpected per diem increase. We get additional pay for long duty days and TDY. Aircraft maintenance personnel meet us on every arrival at maintenance stations. They prepare the aircraft in the morning as a right start program and brief us on any issues. Pilot training is very thorough and could be described somewhere between challenging and brutal.
Cons
Crew scheduling is still a work in progress. Really good people working with a limited scheduling program. There seems to be some favoritism between longer term employees. For most flight crews their time at JSX will be looked at in the future as a great stepping stone to bigger and better things. These aircraft can only produce so much revenue.
