Pros

Prestige of working for Flight Safety.

Cons

I was offered a job as a Simulator Instructor and as a condition of employment was required to sign a very unfair, company favorably 2 year Training Contract for the inflated price of my training. Voluntary resignation in the first year required 100% payback, resignation at the 23rd month of employment required nearly 50% payback. I declined the job as a result. When I asked if this applied at all the Learning Centers, I was told that this eventually would apply at every Center. Beware Guys and Gals.

Pros

If you want to pretend you'rein aviation and be at home every night.

Cons

It is a sweat shop. They will work you until you can't work anymore. Your days off will be flexible and they will not respect anything that resembles a schedule. They will offer you a base pay with no incentive to work more, but reprimand if you refuse. The worse thing, though, is that they are scared to death of the client/customer so they will never provide you with any support - the client/customer is always right . . . always.

Pros

I enjoyed working at FlightSafety, Fast paced and a lot of energy. Loved my job.

Cons

Cannot work at home, even on your own time. You may be told one thing but something completely different happens. Needs more communication with their employees.
