Pros

You will be paid generously along with housing and a rental car to sit around and run a few problems a day. You get to immerse yourself in the aviation community. If you're trained and proficient in your duties your manager will have your back and defend your honor like you are her own child. Boss include our RPO feedback in meetings making the training system progress efficiently as a whole. The rest of your co workers are relatively chill.

Cons

There is no rhyme or reason to the work being done. There are 3 different contractors there all serving the same customer (the FAA) working the same objective and can be extremely and bureaucratic. There Isn't a schedule relayed to us for the day so no one knows exactly whats going on until boss comes in to herd us off expeditiously . Plans change like the weather there. Boss tends to forget her set rules for us often contradicting herself when it suits her.

Pros

When full time you get benefits/paid holidays

Cons

When working as a casual RPO, you work a full time schedule with no benefits and unpaid holidays. You also do not accrue pto when in casual status. As a full time fully certified RPO you will make the same as a casual training RPO. There is no incentive to continue working for this company. You get a yearly review with a 37 cent raise.
