Not one to say much...
I've been at Atlas a little over six years now. Loved flying the 747. Switched to the left seat in the 767 a couple years ago and, after a short what in the heck did I do to myself period, am loving the 767 as well. Truthfully I have really enjoyed my time here.
All of the negative things that people post here are pretty much dead on. You can be away from home an awful lot, they can screw up your schedule without even trying, and the pay has a ways to go.
That said, working here has a ton of pluses if you like this kind of flying. If you have a super supportive family at home and can deal with some of the curve balls this place throws at you its actually a pretty neat place to work. Totally my opinion of course...
Sadly, today we received another letter from upper management that indicates to me that they truly don't give a rats ass about us, the viability of the company, or that they have any scruples whatsoever. I've never advocated that anyone avoid Atlas before, quite the contrary, but now I feel that I must warn anyone and everyone away from this place.
Do not come to Atlas Air. There has always been some question as to the quality of people that come here, there will be no question anymore...this place should be reserved for those that can't get a flying job anywhere else...
