Virtually every Atlas pilot posting on these boards has the same message: Atlas BAD.
You can argue semantics and the outsiders point of view all you want, but ours is the message from inside. We can't stop you from applying at Atlas if you choose to ignore our warnings, but I think the message is pretty clear.
747 and 767 captains are leaving Atlas.
From October to the current seniority list, there have been 8 new hire classes and a total net gain of 8 pilots.
We are being sued by the company.
Our right to honor picket lines has been taken to court in an effort to weaken our union.
If you still don't understand, you aren't paying attention.

Yeah... When you get here please don't be a new hire that complains about the probationary pay and how much it's hurting your family. First year pay is worse than a regional right now and there is no flow through. You know right off the bat that this isn't a permanent move so you will hemorrhage money while you spend 3 or 4 years changing jobs.
