switch, our management are currently out of touch at the moment. Hopefully due for a reset soon otherwise they will struggle to recruit and retain pilots, we've already had a few leave due to the constant onslaught. In the past few years affecting new joiners - Fixed term contracts, PPY50, pay to join, pensions reduced, dual basing, no bonus paid (which has 5% pension flex for new joiners) and a recent document explaining how we're not cost effective versus flybe/wizzair and we must all take a 20% cut to our lifestyle benefits/T&Cs.
The good news is an unprecedented response from the pilot work force currently going through the usual failure to agree processes, I guess we shall wait and see how this affects the current landscape. In all its a good company to work for, strong union representation and great staff, your just not appreciated by management, constantly fed spin/lies. I guess this is the current era of management. Most airlines in the UK have had their battles recently, this is our one.
