Ever since the purchase of Flexjet management has used every tactic to slow the process down and keep the pilots divided. Refused to provide pilot contact information, forcing pilots to be self motivated to contact the union themselves. Imply they don’t need to pay dues. When the Union informs the company of ho is not paying the contract says the company has to notify the individual, they refuse and use it against the Union claiming the union wants pilots fired. They dragged there feet getting Union members trained thru HR to be able to introduce the new hires to the Union. Scheduled new hire classes when the few trained personnel were on duty flying. You get the picture. Just plain disgusting. Not to mention all of the time spent in court and arbitration. They don’t even follow the court or the arbitrators rulings.

Even this decert effort is a delay tactic for bargaining. If it successful, company wins. If it isn't successful, company wins by delaying bargaining while we have really strong environmental leverage. Everyone says a downturn is coming, if they can delay this long enough to put us in that downswing, it gives them leverage.

And when that downswing occurs and if we don't have a CBA... guess who is getting a haircut? I can tell you it won't be management.

I hate to be this way, but at the end of the day, why does anyone stay at Flex/Flops? It’s not a career company, vote with your feet and leave to a better company.

21% have left, and more are leaving every day. Still, it’s very competitive out there and takes a while to get an interview from someone you might want to work for.

Is it true that pilots who do the same job/fly the same plane get paid vastly differently? Sounds like trust right there.
