I’m sure they will kick and scream, but it’s in our contract. What a dumb thing to allow the company to have. Lesson learned for this next go around. Effectively raises first year pay to 128ish per hour. Or 90 dollars more per hour than pre 2018 hires….my goodness.

This is a 3 year training contract disguised as a bonus. The option to continue to increase first year pay is still there but they’ve decided to do this instead cause it’s cheaper. It’s also less equitable for pilots already here.
Buyer beware! I WOULD NOT come to F9 for this and if I did, I would keep the money in savings to repay it if hired elsewhere. Think hard before you shackle yourself in the current hiring market.

I guess a strongly worded letter…
I’ll just have to accept the seniority gains as my consolation prize in knowing a year 1 guy is making more than myself.
