This isn't the first web board by the Company either, the first one was, you guessed it... SHUT DOWN. It was an ugly, ugly place. We get all the information we need pushed to us, or we can just email someone. We DON'T need a company wide wailing wall that will, I guarantee you, turn into a gigantic train wreck within weeks of going live. Wait until contract negotiations, when you'll hear what your fellow widget heads really think about your pay and working conditions. And yes, there will be the "White Hat" pilot on there telling everyone how we need to all pull together and SACRIFICE. You think ALPA is busy now? They will have to create a whole new office just to handle this mess, 24/7. Did you know for example it shows your current location when you are logged in?
I've seen all this before, many times, I've been on every pilot board there is. It's all the same, but this time you're handing management the keys to your career every time you go on there and say anything. Remember all those boxes you checked on CQ "Rules of the Road"? THAT's the noose they'll hang you with. This is a honey-trap. I can think of a few folks who are sure to fall right in. Pretty smart thinking by the company. Good luck and tread VERY carefully, I'm staying FAR away from this dumpster fire.
You honestly believe the company went through all this effort just to set a honey-trap? That’s a grade A conspiracy theory right there. If it was a trap as you claim, it wouldn’t be voluntary to participate like it is.
I’ve been a part of SkyHub for several months now and it has been nothing but a great communication tool for daily ops and specific groups that I’m involved in.
