And I have passed training at 5 companies in the past 30 years, both US&EU without subsequent failures or problems, but never felt behind in training because it was "like a top tier university" (as a matter of opinion, a former trainer saying training is amazing actually carries less weight than a former line pilot saying that). What I have heard about work rules does not sound good to me. About 11 days off per month?? I get at least 15 before vacation. The fact they have openings for DECs pretty much says enough: more people with experience are leaving.
Pay will be approx 19K USD a month if you take the housing allowance. Plus you'll get schooling allowance that will cover 80-90% of the fees for World-Class schools for three kids and you won't have to worry about your kids getting shot. But each to their own...
