Am I missing something here. In every company he has ever joined to make a change every employee in these companies has ended up paying for this change. Results are ranging from terminations to pay cuts. Does someone really think good things will come to anyone if he really joins Emirates?
One of the more stringent problems at EK is the hemorrhaging of employees, especially pilots. Although there is replacement knocking wildly at the door, their qualification needs training in excess of capacity and cost they want to bear.
Now a pay cut in this domain does not really sound blessed with hope of success, doesn't it?
