The advertisement is smoke in mirrors. To my knowledge, they don’t even want us releasing the pay information because it’s “confidential”. So I’m not sure why you would want to work somewhere where the pay information is not made available to the candidate.

IME "Confidential" is usually code for, well its low, but we don't want people knowing how low, and then comparing across the field to the other operators...etc... been there. Pilots talk, word gets out. As much as upper tries to stop it. This isn't 2008 anymore...
Well in some instances the pay is decent. But the adverts that mention $220+ is a schedule that has only 8 days off per month…

It could all be fixed with “up to” 220K.

What sets our G-IV’s apart from many is that they have a set schedule that is biddable and written in stone. If our pilots choose to work extra, then that closes the gap between us and them, but still leaves that up to them. The pilots who do this are the ones who are pushing $200+K, not the pilots like me that value schedule over $$$... This is because most pilots do not come here for the money as there are quite a few other operations that pay equal or much better than we pay; Most people come here and stay here for the freedom to live in place that most other operators say no to, the quick upgrade potential, the small company growth potential, or the culture.
Personally, I think that the marketing company that is working for us could clear all this up by simply saying “up to $220K”, etc.. That way, it could address our pilots who are senior and who work extra, but not give false impressions of realistic earnings here. I will bring this up with our Management to see if we can get that fixed.

Hi Maple, Not yet..
As of now, we are not sponsoring any foreign pilots. If that changes, I will post it up on here.... I did hear a rumor that Spirit and Frontier were going to sponsor and you are already typed in that equipment.
Take care...
