      Pros

      New planes with solid Mx

      Cons

      This aviation department is run by a bunch of flight school management trying to run a big time operation. The hiring practices are terrible, Management does not want to be bothered with legitimate issues, so much so that they send out a “communication guide” that essentially says “don’t call us” The pay and benefits have no structure and is severely lacking for captains. I met some good people here but it is essentially a bunch of pilots who have zero jet time from their flight school so there’s a much higher workload on captains. They advertised a big raise which was nothing short of a joke all while teasing half the FO community about upgrading to which they have no process or standards for. The one positive is the scheduling managers. Those guys are doing the job your Aviation “management” should be doing!

      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.

      Huge disappointment

      Pros

      Not a lot of flying at the moment

      Cons

      Company had hyped up a big pay raise and benefits, only to be let down. No pay raise to speak of for PICs. PTO/vacation are the same. The pay is far behind NJ, FJ and others. They threw in a few benefits but took away overtime and comp days. You will be only paid a daily rate when forced to work on your off days. Work on a holiday and you get 1.5 daily rate but no comp day. Taking away our comp days and forced to go to training on off days might equal the increase of 9 days PTO. Can only carry over (5) days of PTO
