Learning a life lesson on what not to tolerate from a job.
Svantaggi
Recruiter uses used car lot lying sales tactics and sells employee prospects a bunch of lies. Pilots have to load the freight but are not paid for this. Low hours. Recruiter promised 100 hours per month but I average 50 on the absolute best months. I ask for more but they say there isn’t any. Low pay, $800 every two weeks plus $0.10 per miles. The mileage could add up, but my paychecks average out to be well less than 500 miles per day. Recruiter promised $60,000+ first year, another huge lie. Scheduling. You are scheduled to be available Monday through Friday, but if you request a Friday or Monday off for a 3 day weekend they will put you on call Saturday and Sunday just so you can’t go anywhere. Employee turnover is super high so there isn’t anybody to teach the new guys how to fly safe. Some employees are openly hostile toward LGBTQIA+. Chief pilot said women and small men shouldn’t be working there because they can’t handle moving the freight. Managers show favoritism toward employees and will turn on you in a second for no reason. Management puts a lot of pressure on pilots to fly in bad weather and in broken airplanes. I am worried about losing my job when they go out of business. Every time I see the owner/CEO all he talks about is getting into FBO operations while the fleet of airplanes is shrinking.
