My situation:
I was just offered a class date with ABX. I am currently a sim check airman with a large regional airline. Schedules are great, money is also pretty good (most of us PC guys made north of $200K in 2016), and I live in base. However, the management are backstabbing, untrustworthy, stereotypical people who are out to fire every one of us. So, who knows how long this gravy train will last.
Question:
Am I way off for even considering making a switch? Or is it a really good time to get in with ABX? I have at least 25 yrs left, not that I want to work that much longer.
Honest opinions are appreciated.
Merry Christmas and thanks in advance!
Management is like that everywhere for the most part.
Hold out for one of the big 4 passenger carriers or the two cargos where there's a better chance that you'll have some semblance of stability and potential for career earnings to make up for the massive pay cut you infer that you'd be taking.
