1. The hotel itself/ transportation issues
2. Training department management and a apparent lack of consistancy
3. Schedule issues during training as well as bad sim instructors
4. pay during training. I have heard 3 separate figures from 3 separate ppl
Are these valid concerns? not sure what to think when I have been told over and over again to avoid PDT like the plague. Thanks!

The hotel itself/ transportation issues
2. Training department management and a apparent lack of consistancy
3. Schedule issues during training as well as bad sim instructors

I dont' believe we have bad sim instructors. No sarcasm here. There is a lack of consistency, but they are not bad instructors. They have different personalities and styles.
In training you are paid your minimum guarantee of 72 hours and per diem.
The whole place is disorganized and that leaves a poor first impression. We're about 10-15 years behind in technology and that leads to this disorganization. Example: when I change my address I have to change it with CP office, training department, safety department, Shared Services, Benefits dept...you get the picture. There is no one database for the whole place. That part is pathetic.
But the Dash is mighty fun to fly.
