Is anybody here working for them as F/O?
Their T&C (especially those concerning salary) are not clear for me - so it would be easier to get some answers directly from somebody working there before applying.
1. How big salary can I expect there monthly net? In my current airline I can get approximately 3750 Euroes net per month and no other benefits except food on board and myid tickets. B2B of course, no permanent job contract, no any licence/medical insurance, terrible DT/FT ratio,
2. How is the general atmosphere? Instructors, captains, cabin crew and another people which we cooperate with daily?
3. What are the options for being upgraded to Cpt? Currently as FO on E-Jet family I have approximately 1500hrs and 2500hrs total.
Thank You so much Guys in advance for all the replies.
1.
FO 4100 gross (2815 net), so 935 euros less than your current salary. Bond is 3 years, 36000 euros. Apartments in center cost more than 1000 for rent plus the utilities which are a lot especially during the winter. Parking is expensive in the center and for free if you have an electric car. Captain's salary 4600 net
2. Atmosphere.. Some happy some not. Keep in mind that a lot of pilots are paying the bond to leave, can't handle it for three years. Beside job, Riga is depressing.
3. There are pilots in the company flying the A220 since 2018 and still not upgraded. There are some quick upgrades like a Captain who was involved in a runway excursion having failed his TR on the A220 at the first try. Social skills matter for the upgrade
What do you mean by bases across Europe? There isn't such a thing
