Is there any gouge on here about what to expect at indoc? Training pay, hotel, car, food, length of training, typical holiday schedule, etc? I searched but couldn't find what I was looking for.

Training is typically M-F. Probably get out early on Friday. Pay is first year, I believe it was 3 hours per day for every day in the month (90 or 93 hours).
Won't need a car. Depending on the hotel they put you in, you can walk across the street, or transportation back and forth is provided. You're on your own for food. There's a cafeteria at Tk, that isn't too expensive. Otherwise, it's either at the hotel or whatever is around.
Indoc lasts two weeks. You will probably get a few days after indoc til systems training. Could be longer, depends on if your fleet is backed up any or not, although I don't think any of them are anymore, but I don't know.
I can't speak to the holiday schedule because I don't know what it is. I would assume you would get two to four days off for the holidays. One of the TK guys could tell you.

I was in indoc last year over Christmas. We finished up the friday before christmas and then didnt start systems until after the new year. Its a great time to get hired because its the last time you will get Christmas off for a while. Once you start systems and all that, its a pure crap shoot as to what you end up with for holidays.

Hotel is good, across the street from the training center. Pay is great. Food at cafeteria is fine and cheap. No transportation needed. Shuttle runs from the training center to DIA every 20min. POSITIVE SPACE to and from home. Christmas and New Years off. Enjoy the first two weeks of indoc. Low stress “open book” (IPAD). Enjoy your 8 ball party and wings ceremony!!!
Training does get intense after indoc but settle in the first two weeks and get into a nice routine. Welcome to United; we are glad you are here!
