New joiners now will be waiting a LONG time to get on a 787, if ever. - not to be negative, but realistic given the number of aircraft jq operate.
Having said that I would highly recommend it as a career choice. Great place to work, great people (for the most part) and the flying is varied and good fun.
You must be at a cruisey base because I did more than that this year on level 1 pay and I do SFA WDO's. Most level 3 MEL fo's are sitting on around 200 gross each year.
