I would go ahead and send it in, but be prepared to answer the question of how soon you will have 500? If you can do that in a month or two, go for it. If that is six months for you, that might be trickier. (IMHO)
Starting salary is about $38,500, plus per diem ($46/day).
Decent benefits (again, my opinion)
Nice place to work. I have enjoyed it (started in July).
I have been very impressed with the corporate/safety culture. They have a very conservative FOM, and they stand by it - I have not gotten any pressure to bend rules or push boundaries from the company.
In fact, I have been pleasantly surprised at how quickly they took the word of a brand new pilot (me) when I called with an issue/question and got a “OK - plan is grounded - find me a mechanic on the field”
I have to admit, in both cases, if it were my personal plane, I might very well have flown the plane again before grounding it.
