I have read awful things about SAS on the board (low pay, QOL down the drain, no benefits). Does anybody here work for them to give an insight? A friend of mine got hired there not too long ago but not long enough to give specific details. Thanks!

Ask your friend how much he makes. Ask him what Captains make. Ask him about the working conditions. Ask him about how they can have people flying as SIC in jets with ABSOLUTELY NO TRAINING, as required by 61.55. Ask him how many aircraft those Captains that have been there more than 3 years are qualified in, and required to fly on a regular basis(some only fly one, others fly 4 on a regular basis). Ask him why they want(but rarely get) pilots current and qualified in the type they plan to put them in(hint - it has something to do with training costs, which is a part of business). Once you have these answers, ask more questions if you're still interested.

Run Forrest, RUN!

Sorry, just realized(after reading this) that my mailbox had reached capacity...so I went through and cleaned it out. It should accept PM's now.
