Tigger,
Nobody will ever fault a pilot for doing the best they can for themselves and family.
I think JetLife would do much better for himself and everyone involved if he moved on without kicking the shins of the company that paid his bills for 2 years.
He came here of his own recognizance and left accordingly along the same.
Time to go.
Leave those bridges intact.

I have nothing to gain and nothing to lose by coming to this thread.
I'm not part of the Netjets Ponzi scheme where I need to keep bringing in suckers below me.
I want every potential employee out there to know that they are signing up for career purgatory. Pay, QOL, retirement - all of it miles behind the industry and no change in sight.
A hiring freeze at Netjets is the best possible thing right now. No new prisoners and hopefully those on the bottom of the seniority list will see there is no light at the end of the tunnel and punch out.

Sadly, on my 3rd year 7/7 pay, $24K is about 1/3 of my base pay. I'm doing 23% right now, and they've been matching it 50% of that. (Weekly match is 50% of 15%, then there is an annual catch up in March)
I'm broke every other Thurs before payday, but my 401K is growing pretty well.

Fly low likely upgraded very soon after, or while in, training.
His experience in no way represents what today's FOs will experience. 20 years in the right seat of a corporate jet is a special type of purgatory.
Jet Life was looking at another 15 yrs as an FO. It was the right move to leave. I hope I follow.
Mr. *Tiggerpilot* is a great guy. If he was facing 20 yr upgrades, I think he would leave too. You guys are more similar then you care to admit.

These things don't add up, and most can see it except him. He hates the airline industry and is universally pro NetJets. Any sort of factual comparisons to other companies or highlighting issues at NetJets (because there are issues there, believe me), constitutes burning bridges to him. I don't regret going to NetJets and I was happy to be gainfully employed by them for sure, but there will never be a thread on the union MB or APC that asks about NetJets, that he won't jump all over to show how awesome NetJets is from the perspective of a 16 year captain who upgraded in indoc.
Honestly it's people like him why many of the initial new hire classes post furlough feel like they were lied to. Lots of spin on things when you asked questions during the interview process. I think that had a lot to do with contract negotiations so now that the dust has settled from that, it's much easier to snapshot your future should you decide to go there.
