Pros

Decent pay for lower time ATP pilots, in their first jet, good hotels, consistent schedule, nice aircraft, growing company equals quick upgrades once you are qualified.

Cons

They will keep you on your go home day until your replacement is in the air. This equates to you getting home at 9pm at night when you could have been home at 2pm if you took off when your replacement took off. As an SIC, how much time you get at the controls is completely left up to the captain and some of them will not let you fly.

Pros

It's an exciting, growing company where individuals who express interest can get involved in and really impact the direction of the company. Because everything is getting built, an entrepreneurially-inclined individual can get involved in high-visibility initiatives that influence decision making.

Cons

The pace isn’t for everyone—priorities can shift quickly, and ambiguity is common. This is somewhat common for an immature company and attempting to grow quickly in a difficult market Systems and processes are still maturing, which can create friction. Resource constraints at times make execution more challenging than it needs to be.

Pros

- schedule options (8/6 or 15/13) - bonus pay on days off (up to $1750 a day if available) - diverse flying from ATL and ORD to smaller non towered airports (every rotation is different)

Cons

- aside from small base pay, additional pay is paid by the hour, if you sit on the ground on a broken aircraft or home reserve you don’t make extra money. - leads to my next con, planes break A LOT, they’re older other companies used airplanes that come with a list of issues. - you book all your own hotels, rental cars, Ubers, etc (you’d think this would be a con but it’s not. I waste my rest periods, especially late in the evening trying to get transportation, book a hotel (when everywhere is booked) and arranging food in between quick turn arounds when I would rather have someone book it for me.
