PSA info

Yea this one was kind of the enigma for me. Good high credit/commutable trips in open time, but I didn't snag a single one. I literally had over 50 denials (so was I working the SAP or did the SAP work me?). I'm either going to end up with a 100 hour line and 9 days off or a 90 hour line and 11 days off. Still waiting for a couple requests to process. I can usually manage 100+ hours and 11 days off or 65 hours and 18 off but this time just didn't work out great for me. I'd be SAPin down to 65 and picking up more shifts at my second job if it weren't slow right now. The wife just told me a couple months ago that she was starting back school and was signed up for classes. So that means I have to work more.

The current upgrade time for a new hire today is 4+ years.
The current flow for a new hire today is 15+ years.
The current wait to hold a round 1 line for a new hire is more than 18 months in the only commutable base.
Even after you hold a line, the SAP is worthless.
The management is hostile towards pilots, and will threaten you if you try to call in sick or fatigued, or if you refuse an extension.
If you use more than a few sick days a year, you will be written up (you can not use the sick hours that you accrue without being sent a letter of warning).
The recruiters will lie to you.
Your Union will not support you.
(In some cases, our recruiters are also union officials, which shows the level of hypocrisy with both groups)
If you are considering coming to PSA, be aware that you will be stuck on reserve for a LONG time. You will be capped at 4 year pay, and will not upgrade for years. You will never flow to American.

Love how the PSA thread has turned into the Endeavor recruiting thread. Complete with Q&A. LMAO
Edit: We are not even *****ing about PSA anymore. Just working on all our exit plans!!
You know it's bad when the pilot group quits *****ing. It's like the calm before the storm.

As far as the SAP goes, that's a union issue to which I say, what union? Our MEC should be embarrassed with how it's own Pilot group feels about them. Spare me the arbitration talk and that being the only path to any resolution. Quit signing LOA's that bail the company out. They will take as much rope as you give them. Wouldn't you?

After messaging pilots on the board I have came to the conclusion PSA recruiters are not telling the full truth. Thanks to those who have messaged me and answered questions. I will NOT be joining the PSA ranks as there are way better options. Thanks for the help guys and gals!
