First paycheck at Republic is about $1,500 give or take, depending on your state taxes. This includes a stipend and part of the bonus.

The second paycheck is about $1,000.

There is no minimum monthly guarantee on the first 30 days of employment. Beginning on the second month, you get $40.40 times 75 hours per month for the remainder of training. According to some, you get per diem as well.

The rest of the bonus (the bigger chunk) is paid out at the completion of IOE.

What're my chances of getting PIT out of training. I live right around there and it would work out very nicely.

What is the first and second paycheck timeline? Is that monthly so that you paychecks are low during training?

First paycheck came in two weeks after class start date. Second paycheck came in two weeks later, so about $2,500 for the first 30 days.

We're paid bimonthly, including during training.

These numbers are all after tax, in other words, it's what actually will hit your bank account in the first month of training AND assuming you have the typical tax situation with no other major source of income.

Okay that is much better to hear! That had me a little worried.

PIT is junior. You could get it quickly if not immediately.

Seems the upgrade time is dropping, not that upgrade is really that much of a concern anymore when it comes to getting to the majors. Also, something that is kind of important to me at the moment, when do you get the bonus and what is the pay like during training? Do you still get paid if you are waiting for weeks on end between training periods? Thanks in advance!
I'll answer your first question. A few pages back there was a general consensus among those at rpa who are on here that it's a good place to work. This was after some clown from another regional claimed no one liked it here. We chimed in differently. I have asked many people out on the line the same question and they mostly agree. There are some unhappy people who lived through the old contract.

Keep looking a few pages back. Many of your questions are answered I think.

All in all, things are looking up at Republic.

Not anymore.

Pit currently is on a 6 month wait. March will have two FO's moving to pit, both are September hires.

June awards which were awarded earlier this month have 3 FO's moving there, two are from October 18 class and one from Nov 29.

Right now, there are 7-10 pilots wanting it that have been hired from December through Jan.

LGA/EWR/DCA/CMH/PHL all have been hired directly into recently. New United 175 deliveries start in April and the base is still not known yet, or at least it has not been announced where they are going, so by early summer, they could be hiring into some other city.

Skywest, better bases. Unless you like wrong coast or the rust belt. IAH has been floating around this place for a while. Dont believe it until its actually announced. Even then this place loves to open and close bases.
