When they broke the news in my class, all my classmates myself included were pleased. Nothing changes as far as pay/bonus pay out/benefits etc.

FWIW, I was a Piedmont new-hire who sat for months after indoc in complete blackhole darkness. After being told one thing by piedmont recruiters, another thing by indoc instructors, and something completely different by MF, as well as being kept in the complete blackhole darkness, the move to republic was probably the best decision I could have made at this current time. The Indoc experience at Piedmont in my opinion was horrible...Not to sound like the RJet cheerleader but my experience so far with RJet has been wonderful.

Our class was split into two groups, one returning mid September, the other returning beginning of October, and we will all be done with sims by the end of november/beginning of december with this new training timeline.

When they decided to break the news, the entire leadership team was there including Bedford himself. Loved the transparency.
