Pros

Multiple flight benefits are the best benefit. Free benefits for you and your spouse and kids, payment for parents on delta. Small pay for you, your spouse, and kids for United. Free for Frontier.

Cons

low pay, no contract, poor management, terrible work rules, managment doesn't relate to the working class. This is the job for you to get some experience and get a good start. But be prepared to be so broke you may live with your parents and be fairly disgruntled until you get the chance to upgrade, which may take over 5 years....

Pros

The insurance benefits are excellent and the time off is more than sufficient if you do not have a problem with working 12-hour shifts.

Cons

The wages are low in comparison to the responsibility of the position. The AOG staff is often rude and tactless and management is quick to point out and discipline and employee when an error has been made. Management rarely praises when a job is well done.

Pros

In any economy the only reason to work at a company like Republic Airways, is that you can't find a job elsewhere. Insurance benefits are above average for the industry. Vacation periods are bid on a year in advance, with little flexibility but vacation accrual is average to above average.

Cons

Incredibly inefficient schedules. Complete lack of feedback from middle management and front line supervisors. Hostile work environment. I just worked a two day flight series. Two days away from home for 1:31 of pay. As an FO completely maxed out on the pay scale I earned less than 24K, whereas JetBlue pilots on the same aircraft will earn about 3 times as much. Bottom line: Management despises the employees at all levels below executive positions. "This is not a career destination" Bryan Bedford once said. In order to keep employee turnover high, experience (consequently: pay) low, management acts in ways to enrage employees. Forced relocations have happened 15 times in the last 5 years. Job stability in a base is non-existent.
