Pprune Radar I hate to rain on your dismissal of Euro's statement but this is indeed the case. Lots of pissed off people who got screwed in 96/97 and some who continue to get screwed today. There is a very distinct feeling on this. (just to let you know I am not one of the screwed so I have nothing to gain)
Our latest restructure was an attempt at keeping the current employees happy with 2.5% each 6 months of pay rise for 3 years and HALVING yes HALVING the trainees and field training salaries. Plus there are no training allowances like there used to be.
Look what happened at Cathay Pacific A scalers debacle a few years ago. That is a case in point.
Don't screw the newbies just for your own good. It will come back to bite.
