The FOs that’ve left/about to leave are the “cheap once”, hired after 2013 who’ve realized they can earn more for the same work elsewhere. Or achieve a better quality of life elsewhere. Good thing is it sends a clear message to management that none have invested their life in this company.
Part time is also a hot topic, but generally works better if offered on a voluntary basis rather than forced upon the work force.
Is there any plans to take up recruitment for SAS nordic bases in the "near" future?
Part of the frustration that some may be feeling is that none knows where this ship is steering. If SAS will cease to exist as we know it and continue as a brand with cheaper production units (like SAIL) performing the work.
At some point they must hire more, but when and in what form remains unknown.
