If it blows up in my face, I'll face the fact and make my next move. One thing you won't hear me do is **** and moan about the company because of a decision that I MADE.

That is by far and away the biggest problem I have with Go Jet. You knew what the situation was going in. You knew how and why that company was created. You knew they had one of, if not the, worst contract in the entire industry. Now, I have to sit on the crew bus and listen to you ***** and whine about how the company treats you like sh!t. Do you want sympathy? Because you aren't going to get it from anyone. You don't deserve it.

It's like walking into a dirty, cheap strip club…Did you really think it was going to be a high end escort service?
You can get the hiv from GoJets?

Unless you don't like money or getting paid for your work. To each his own.

I love hearing about how bad a company is from people who don't work for it. Whereas the people who do (some, can't speak for all obviously) laugh at the idiots on here and joke about how bad you guys assume things are but really things are fine. Upset about how things went down a decade ago? Get a ********* life.

So are you the Blow Jet 1%? Because every one else I know talks about how big of a dumpster fire, sh!t hole that place is. Tell me why the other two Hulas company employees don't have the same things to say about their own companies?

My info is all from people who work at that place. I hear it on the crew bus all the time. Ya'll aren't even to work and you are whining about the company. I've heard it on jet bridges, BJ jumpseats, etc.

If you enjoy it great. It's all what you make of it. I'm just saying someone that decides to go to G7 over pretty much any other regional, with movement, right now should be checked out.

Just a heads up... Everyone knows the lengths that recruiters will go to to get people in class. But I've heard from a friend who recently interviewed with GoJet that the recruiter is telling people they get 100% cancellation pay and a bunch of other stuff that is flat out not true. So just be aware of exactly what your getting into.

The amount this surprises me is zero. I mean other airlines are quoting upgrade times with no actual new airplanes on delivery. How they can do that is a little unethical. Brand new FOs flock there and happily tell me how they will upgrade in X amount of time cause the company said they would.

I know for TSA we will estimate upgrade time but clearly tell them it is an estimate and tell them our delivery schedule and the amount of FOs on the current list.

We want to keep our pilots and want them to be happy an not feel jaded. I can only speak for TSA though.

If your able to go there is a career fair in Dallas the end of the month. Several reps will be there for you to talk with: Dallas / Fort Worth Pilot Job Fair January 30 2015 ? Aero Crew Solutions
Yeah and the most bitter are the ex Gojet guys at PSA because of the all the time they wasted working at Gojet for peanuts when they could have made a heck of a lot more at PSA.

This is definitely not inaccurate^^^ The people that I have come across with the worst regional experiences in interviews/training always come from GoJet. I've personally had several friends work there and they would ALL warn you away from the company.
