Etc etc.

My recurrent training was literally a sit down with a study guide. That's it.

They are starting to pressure pilots to take flights in dangerous weather.

Pilots and med crews are not receiving their promised retention bonuses without a fight.

Relocation reimbursements are being promised and then denied after the employee moves.

On 8/25/17 the D.O. declared that our pay needs to be restructured. We are going to get paid hourly wages instead of daily rates. We are also moving to a 14/7 schedule.

Just stay away. Stay far away.
