How long is it taking a new hire to get to BOI? During training, they were telling us that all new hires were being sent to MFR.

Does anyone know what strings are attached to the $20k bonus? Are new hires signing a contract for some number of years of employment?

I was also told to let Horizon pay for ATP-CTP. Do they do this with or without strings attached?

Thanks

I am going through ATP CTP now and they pay for all of it but I haven't seen any strings yet. Also the bonus is pretty convoluted but here is the most recent thing I have seen.

Q400: 10k upon completion of IOE, and a 5k retention bonus @ 18 months of service.
Additional exp bonuses are 5k between 500-749hrs in type, 10k additional from 750 up.
E175: 5k upon completion of IOE, the rest is the same.

Hope this helps.

So they aren't even paying out the bonuses that are being advertised? 20k+?

My $0.02 re: the bonus (or at least my understanding of it...)
"Up to $25,000": this depends on Q or Jet, and your hours/quality of experience.
I am expecting: $12,500 at conclusion of IOE and $12,500 at 1 yr DOH, based on choosing the Q and previous qualifying experience. 406 is right, it's a little screwy, and his breakdown is how I remember it...there's a table of rows and columns. Go further right for the Q and further up for previous experience until you reach $25k. Another well qualified pilot in my interview pool plotted his bonus at $15k.

Stay tuned, we'll see if this is true.

Fly406 and I will be at indoc in about a week. This is toward the top of many lists of questions.

You were told 18 months...or 12? I was told end of year one.

Stinger6 03-11-2018 06:07 PM

I was told one year from date o' hire.

BigfatQ 03-11-2018 08:38 PM

I'm supposed to get 10 after ioe and 10 after a year in the Q with no prior experience, at least that's what they told us

TyWebb 03-14-2018 11:39 AM

There's nothing in writing for these bonuses? Taking someone's word isn't what it used to be, especially in dealing with a corporation.

deadpixel 03-15-2018 02:11 PM

I just interviewed yesterday.

10K for the Q paid once you complete IOE. Another 5 in 18 months from completing IOE

5K for the 175 again once IOE is done, and another 5 in 18 months.

Then you have the ability to get another 10 broken down between how much 91/121/135 multi engine turbine PIC time you have. Don't remember the breakdown since I didn't qualify.
