Pros

Great colleagues and t&c for a low-cost on the better than average side

Cons

Management strategy focuses on package holidays, cost, and filling their own pockets

Advice to management

Stop chasing £££ and maybe they’ll come by treating your staff with some decency.

Advice to future employees

If it’s what suits you, it’s a good company. Accept hat your a number and the rest is just noise.

Excellent employer, let’s see what the new management brings

CheckmarkRecommended to other Pilots CheckmarkPositive business outlookCheckmarkApproval of management

Pros

Stable roster with an average workload (personally flying around 500-600 hours/year pre-Covid, but that might vary depending on base), well maintained and relatively modern fleet, excellent training

Cons

Big company, not very flexible when it comes to accomodating individual requests, you're basically just a number - don't expect any sympathy. Lots of safety-based restrictions when it comes to flying, which takes most of the fun out of it.

Advice to management

Better communication with your employees - I learn of important management decisions through the press. Also ... trust your pilots, they're professionals who actually had to prove themselves - instead of applying blanket rules to make things excessively safe.

Advice to future employees

If you're looking for a stable company and good family life (home every night, decent rosters), this place is for you. If you're young and you're looking for exciting airline flying with good layovers, great destination, forget it.
