People coming here should have a realistic outlook and tempered expectations. NYC and a coin toss of an interview. I hope our recruiters are being honest.

Not my song, not my lyrics, but the few pilots who are sucked in by the con men of recruiters certainly must be heavily outweighed by smart pilots doing their own research. I do enjoy watching HR fail though, even from a distance. Hopefully that means more money for you all.

Welcome aboard to all, this is an awesome place to work. Honest culture, professional treatment from management, the chiefs have your back. For me, 3+ years, upgraded after about 13 months (prior 121 time), just waiting for my DGI number to be called.



And, honestly, if things don't work for me at mainline, I like it here. I could see myself hanging around for a while.

PSA is a better choice than endeavor since I believe Norfolk is one of their junior bases and not a long drive, but a bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush. I wouldn’t wait around for the possibility of PSA hiring you, that’d be like waiting around at Endeavor for the possibility Delta may hire you when Jet Blue or United is already giving you a job offer.

If you do come to Endeavor, know we are already overstaffed quite a bit to absorb some of this new growth, so the movement may not be as quick as it seems. Reserve will no doubt be long, you’ll likely be on the 200, and upgrade will take longer than other airlines, beyond 1000 121 most likely. We do have an excellent commuter policy though.

Yeah the “overstaffing” phase is over. Tons of 200% days in my category being offered and I’m being used pretty much every day on reserve bidding last out and being in the top half of reserves in seniority.

Also comparing to my friends at AA wholly-owneds, this is a great company to work for. Ask a PSA pilot how their MX is and compare how many MELs they fly with compared to us.
