I would avoid this place like a disease, they just got rid of half dozen people who where coming off probation for using sick leave while on probation. No other issues, what's most troubling is they let some people fly 7-8 months then canned them last week of probation for sick calls in February. Military avoid at all cost!
They were doing this stuff 3 years ago when I left. They would fly someone all year. Then, right before probation ended, they would fire them if they thought they fatigued or sicked out too much.
Some things never change. This is why it’s good to have two differing view points on these threads.

Thankfully the job market for pilots is still strong and they can probably find better jobs elsewhere. All the airlines are hiring including airlines that hire a lot of NJA pilots including Spirit, JB and SWA.

Not sure there is proof that people were canned for using sick leave only. Like all airlines, calls to dispatch are recorded, one need to be smart when calling and asking days off. I would tend to think that any company has pilots on probation for a few reasons and absenteeism might be one of them.
What about the people who got given a second chance and got their probation extended 1 more year instead of being canned?
One thing that's definitely tough is the lack of PTO the first year.

Wow! That is a big turnaround for you since you have been the biggest cheerleader for Netjets on this forum over the last several months.

I was a big cheerleader and got asked to resign for trying to do the right thing and call out sick (got three little kids, **** ruins through our house) so my fellow workers and owners didn't get sick. Shocked! But last few classes had same thing, just not honest brokers! To many guys from what I'm told taking 3 year leaves? I don't know but I can tell you I passed all check-rides, never had training issues, busted my ass and had "Mr Seinfeld" give me a hug so to get canned for calling in sick for 4 times, Not a good place to work

File an AIR21 case against them.
Call the Feds if they fired you for sick calls and you had no issues other than that. All of you sign on. NJA lost a large AIR21 case a few years back. 5 guys got lots of money and MCC had to be redone because of it.
The basis would be pressuring you to fly while sick. That’s asking you to fly with an invalid medical if you are sick.
