Atlas Hiring

[treetopflyer]

hr made it sound like they would offer employment to the swimmers in the pool.

That's how I read it, Treetop. Sounds like perhaps toward the end of first quarter there may be some movement. Standing by the phone!

I would have your resume up to date. word is we(polar) will add 2 more 400`s to take us to 8. 10 captain upgrades starting after new year. you could see the resume window open here soon. hope it helps..

So, what is the latest? Any upgrades, and any leads on where the planes are coming from?

Is Atlas still considered the best place to be considered the lowest paid 747 driver in the world?

I know you're just "stirring the pot" but, Umm no, that would be World or Southern.

Now Southern is the lowest paid B777 operator in the world. time in type time to punch out.

Atlas was able to circumnavigate that issue through naturalization.

Hi!

There are a couple of other 747 operators that pay less than Atlas. I think Atlas is actually the best paid American 747 operator. I personally think the compensation and work schedules are very good.

NBO

 

[Talon757]

Yep

Spot on, Cliff.

$$$$$$$

Can't complain about the paycheck, the work rules on the other hand could use some work. Another profit sharing check right around the corner

I do realize that due to the current state of the industry when hiring starts it could be quite coimpetitive. However, saying that, what were the minimums last time? What would they possibly be this time? What is the "secret handshake" to get HR attention?

thanks

Delta 215$ (international)...ATLAS 176$..

 

[Talon757]

Or for some more realistic hourly numbers....

Southern 3 year F/O $75
Evergreen 3 year F/O $59
Kalitta 3 year F/O $78
Atlas 3 year F/O $90

Guarantee:

Southern 60
Evergreen 65
Kalitta 62
Atlas 62

I'd say when comparing apples to apples Atlas stacks up pretty well.
