I would rather stay unemployed than work for this outfit! Marines view on the company is 100% accurate. This is what you can expect if you work for Sky Limo
1. No scheduled days off, they think your on call days are your days off.
2. On call schedule is 24/7/365
3. Faa has interviewed pilots there for suspicion of falsifying training records, docturing required maintanence on A/C, etc.
4. If you refuse a trip, even if you have a valid excuse, i.e, sick, family emergency, you will lose your job
5. D.O uses ultimatums to get his way with his employees
6. They fly their A/C unairworthy, if you refuse the flight, guess what, you will lose your job.
7. They have a terrible reputation in the industry, if you work there, be ready for harsh criticism about why you chose to work for such a company like Sky Limo
8. Absolute chaos from the minute you pick up your flight pack, unorganized from the top to the bottom , dispatchers who do not have a clue about 135 regs and duty times, passenger names not on the itinerary for international flights, absolutely no support from the company when your on the road. If you have a problem, you better figure out the solution yourself, the D.O will tell you himself that he doesnt want to be bothered, and forget calling the Chief Pilot, he has no operational control.
9. Bottom line , stay away from this company, not worth the risk of losing your license that you worked so hard to obtain.
10. There is work out there, you just have to be persistant and stand out amongst the other guys looking for work. Good luck!
