Pro Pilot..I've been here a little over 2 years. I will tell you that I like my job. The management has a different philosophy that is verbally pilot friendly but backed up with anti-pilot action such as completely circumventing labor agreements if it is convienient to them. Realize if you come here, we are about to take a strike authorization vote and relationships b/t management and labor is getting increasingly hostile, so there is a gamble if you come. Specifically, you could be on probation during a strike. The pilot group will stand by you, but it would not be a position I would want to be in...basically, if you have a choice and can make an informed decision, would you really want to throw yourself into this fight? Especially when Mesaba has the same bases, is growing, and is the new favored son of NW...I think you would get a reasonably quick upgrade there as well with the new planes comming on and PNCL still scheduled to lose 15 a/c to Mesaba. Hope this helps. PM me with any questions.
