It ain't all sunshine and rainbows in SDF, and the job ain't for everybody...but it also isn't exactly the indentured servitude some on here would lead others to believe. The compensation & benefits are excellent (thanks IPA!) and worthy of a look by anyone - but if you're 85% or higher at AA with the retirements looming you have, that seems like a sizable risk.

JMHO

Not trying to be insulting or anything.

I've just known a few-and generally they seemed unhappy.

The pay is good, the schedules and mgmt are hard to deal with-so I hear.
