Pros
The Airplanes are in amazing condition. ATP hires the finest mechanics who are skilled, personable, and professional. New planes with awesome A&Ps make for an amazing experience. The endorsements online are awesome; we don't have to worry about fulfilling FAA requirements, because the required endorsements are already online for instructors. The final Pro is Tim from flight ops (and Mike. And Andrea).
Cons
ATP doesn't care about their employees. At all. They break the law by calling their employees contractors so that they can pay us less than minimum wage. We have mandatory meetings, business cards, uniforms, hours set by our employer, special training; I hope you get audited. They make their flight instructors work incredible hours, with no pay or respect. You can expect to be constantly berated by your manager (In some locations. Marty is FL, is blunt, but amazing. Same with the manager at KIWA).
