So had my interview at EasyJet last week, I have got to say quite impressed seemed a nice bunch of people very honest and there were many of us asking very direct questions. They are now aiming to scale back 4 sector days and to improve pilot lifestyle to compete with their competitors.
Looking forward to my interview at Jet2 to see how they are but on paper they are some way behind.
EasyJet £144,579 vs Jet2 £140,607
Sector Pay EasyJet Win
Trainer Uplift EasyJet Win
Staff Travel EasyJet Win
Money off holiday EasyJet Win
Death in service pay 4X Salary Jet2 3X
LOL Jet2 Win with £500pm more
Fixed/Flexible working EasyJet Win Jet2 make staff take a pay cut
Union at EasyJet vs Pilot Reps at Jet2 can anyone comment how effective this is ?
Holiday Easy provide wrap around days either side of you leave Jet2 don't.
EasyJet don't reduce your legal days off if your book leave I'm led to believe Jet2 do can anyone clarify ?
Rostering at EasyJet, we were shown sample rosters didn't look to bad pilot at the interview said they are doing 600hrs a year friends of theirs in Manchester doing close to 800hrs per year but base dependent between 500-800hrs per year can anyone clarify ?
Seen Jet2 latest captain advert stating 550/600hrs per year average 40hrs pm summer 30hrs pm winter for £180K per year ? can anyone clarify ? because 600hrs per year is 50hr per month for 12 mths? am I missing something ?
thanks in advance to all your comments just trying to get a better picture of both.
