I'd say, click on your own link, go to "Careers" and then click on their Indeed link where there are reviews. Then I would click on their "Pilot Jobs" link.....They make you sign a 2 year contract for Initial and 1 year for recurrent. Doesnt sound great, the only credit I give them is they tell you upfront about the contract so if you are going to complain, dont apply!

Large doesn't always mean good.

If you go from 1 to 20 planes in 3 years, do you have the MX to support it, the operations staff? Etc. I know a few people who have worked there and moved on. Its charter. YMMV.

Wing just rebranded. Not a stellar reputation on the mx or qol sides. Caveat emptor.

Just part of their ever-evolving shell game.

8/6 schedule on the Hawker 800
12/10 on the G-IV
15/13 on the Global Express.
Pay depends on the airplane and I don't know much about it, except that G-IV captain is $155,000 to start.

Cool! Thanks!

I assume the GIV does a lot of international and age 65 would be an issue.

I recently interviewed with the company. 3 very quick and informal interviews and was invited to a SIM evaluation which went well. Job offer 2 days later with the 24 month contract. I proposed some changes to the contract that my mentors suggested. Job offer was immediately rescinded, with a "best of luck to you" type email. I thought the response was unnecessary and spiteful. I consider reasonable negotiations to be an ordinary part of new employment

Direct Entry Captains at a Regional Airline make that much in year 1. Plus large signing bonuses. Some of the regional's are giving SIC's with 750hrs 121 time Captains pay.
