What about the environment in the company? Colleagues? Average monthly hours in both PMI and VIE?
The colleagues on the line, in maintenance, etc... are usually pleasant to get along and work with.
The environment:
The company appears to grow - people are being sent to OCC and type rating courses and there are a few more deliveries due. So there are definitely opportunities. So much for the bright side. It was recently announced, that, if the flight crews @VIE would not accept a new "base agreement", 30 pilot jobs @ VIE would be cut and 4 B737s from RYR would take over some routes. As austrian71 noted, people accept certain things for preserving not only their own, but also their colleague's jobs at home - which is perfectly understandable in a way.
After the agreement was signed, not 30, but still several people were terminated by the management anyway. It appears, that "trust" may therefor not be the correct word to describe the environment at the moment.
Hours at the VIE base: Average 60/month - I am not familiar with PMI/STR/DUS rosters.
