Compass? Where else are you going to go if you want the west coast?
Compass just closed their DTW base and opened PHX. They also have LAX and PDX.

Today they're pushing it much farther than they would in the past, and getting away with it because most everybody wants to get their time and move on (Almost all the FO's and at least half the CA's). The ones who wanted to make it a home are getting caught up in the mess, getting fed up, putting apps out, and ceasing to care much.
This mentality is the problem. Wanting to get in and get out does not mean you can’t unionize while you are still on property in order to make it better. It’s a good insurance policy in case you find yourself stuck longer than planned. The timing right now is good. You have more than four years before a new pay package. After unionizing, it’ll take about 2 years to get a contract. |
Not only that but they look like us....AMIRITE

They are working harder, but still filling classes.
Oz has common language, common culture, no security worries, good GA infrastructure (plenty of pilots, real pilots vice MPL), and painless right to work path. That's the first place they'd look after Canada. Plus it's a bit of a hassle to change employers on a work visa... |

If they could fill classes with US pilots they would not be importing pilots and to get around raising pay they started looking at importing pilots. Looks a bit like Norwegian stuff to me....it can also be seen as importing cheap labor as not enough US pilots wants to work for the current pay.....must fill classes.....right
It's obvious that they can't fill classes with the subpar pay scale that passes for industry-mocking. We've even had FOs bail for competitors lately! That says a lot... They'll do whatever they must to protect their cheap payscale. I keep telling you guys to make your exit as soon as you can manage it. Don't waste a moment here longer than you must. Only after a mass exodus of pilots takes place will future SkyWest pilots benefit. |
