Pros

Superior training. Great cohort of colleagues.

Cons

Little postive feedback. You don't hear from leadership except when they believe you erred. They say "Just Culture" but everything you do, including the timing and amount of aircraft writeups, is tracked and assessed. They give you no idea as to what their KPIs are for your work evaluation. You only find out when you've exceeded them. They are looking to reduce the crew force and use ANY legal opportunity to cull from the ranks. Seems their current goal is to avoid invoking WARN Act notifications.

Pros

Base cash compensation is above average. Work-life balance can be good as well, depending on the team.

Cons

Some teams are led by toxic managers, and your experience can become very difficult if you end up on one of those teams. Management may appear supportive on the surface, but periodic layoffs create ongoing uncertainty.
