Why do you feel this is happening?

send your resume with someone who works there is the only way to get a job there is what I have heard
"I hear you knocking but you can't come in"

A year ago that might have been true but I would say 90 percent of the recent hires I talk to had no inside connection. Just an online application

stay away! i left after over 4 years and people are jumping ship faster than you can imagine. The people that are leaving have all been there for a while so that should tell youm something. The promise onething but deliver the total opposite. Nobody will tell the truth because everyone is scared. they have no union so its fire at will and they do fire at will.

What? Is that really true? What is it that CS isn't delivering? Elaborate. I am considering employment there. Any truth to this CS guys?

Now that is an effective message... Details would be appreciated.

You always have guys who will hate it. A lot of people are leaving but they are all leaving for either a cushy 91 corporate gig, SWA, Fedex, UPS or they are being recalled back to the majors.

You left or you were told to leave? Be specific. What were the reasons? What type of employment did you gain? Why did you stay at CS for more than 4 years if you hated it so bad? Please don't keep us in suspense any longer, Kid.

I left myself KID. Along with about 4 or 5 others-thats in the same week. As for those that care to know why its because the company will promise one thing and they will do something that is totaly diff. their response is always the same if you don't like it leave. I have seen people screw up things so bad that you would think they should be fired on the spot but instead they are promoted. I have seen guys stay for years and years and give nothing but the best service get left behind. (no i was not one of them) for those that think the merrit based system is dead think again. no overtime=late upgrade, don't drink the company koolaid=late upgrade, mgt doesnt like you=late upgrade. As for my reasons why I left they are pretty simple. no dispatch, no pilot friendly mgt. and too much of the you dont like it then leave. crew rot at the fbo, min rest overnite evry single nite. The company will try to push you as much as they can and as long as you get the job done no problem, but if screw up watch out. There are alot of senior people that are getting ready leave, i get calls everyday asking for letters of recomendations. The bottom line is toooooo many people are afraid to say anything online or at the fbo. you don't have to beleive me since i don't care now that i am gone.
It was a great place to be 2-4 years ago but now times have change and in my opinion they are not much better than a regional. Before i left nehires were telling me that when they interviewd they were told that it was a 7/7 schedule, but when they showed up mgt all of a sudden decided that it changed to an 8/6 if this is the company you want to work for be my guest.
