This is a company that pays its direct entry staff more than existing long term staff, refuses to put in place a cla which means they can do whatever they want to you whenever they need.
Ryr pilots get paid less than they did 18yrs ago. Its a fact. Yet the company makes far more money.
it puts other airlines out of buisness, why? Because its costs are so low. The cost of fuel is fixed, the other cost is staff.
It is their company! Why should they have a gun to their head to share with the staff? If the staff don’t like the conditions they are of course free to leave.
Management salaries are too high but not obscenely high. Just imagine for a second taking that manager out and replacing him with captain joe bloggs, I can guarantee that 5 years down the line the company will be losing 1 billion a year as opposed to making it!
it is the management that makes the money (in most but not all cases) the staff are mostly replaceable and sorry to say it not special.
