Company sponsored flight school “IS IT WORTH IT”
Greetings,
I work for this amazing company that has a company sponsored flight school, in-which covers 75% of the total cost per license! It’s an excellent opportunity for me simply because I’ am an aspiring pilot who doesn’t have a pot to **** in or a window to throw it out of. Anyway’s, my only caveat is that the company requires a two year commitment after receiving necessary contributions towards each license.
Exact wording from GUIDELINES
“If an employee participating in the Company Sponsored Flight Training Reimbursement program terminates employment within 24 months of receiving a reimbursement benefit, they will be required to reimburse the “Company” for flight school expenses paid for the last pilot certificate course enrolled in or completed, within 30 days or their termination date
With that being said, is it really worth taking the company contributions and being seat locked for an extended time period? My ultimate goal is to become a pilot (Regional/Fractional/Majors) ASAP… Currently, I’m still working on my private so it could be any where between 4-5 years before I would be able to fly professionally
What do you think????
