Out of my class of 7 at TSA, there are 2 left working for the company in approximately two years. So....you can take that as pilots are getting what they need to move on very quickly....and that TSA isn’t a place that inspires pilots to stick around for long.
I don’t know if you would be forced to pay back the company for your RTW costs if THEY terminate your contract. I would definitely be ****ed if they did that after I held up my end and they decided not to continue my employment.
Disclaimer: I am not one of the two out of my class left. I am one of those who became “outside of the training footprint”, now making almost double at another airline what I would have been making at TSA, will upgrade the moment I decide I’m ready for it and put my bid in, and found a place that is a much better fit QOL and career wise than I ever would have found at TSA.
