LTU, Hapag Lloyd, or Air Berlin

A good German friend of mine has built up about 3,000 hours in corporate jets (with a lot of PIC time) and he is considering making the jump to one of the charter carriers - LTU, Hapag Lloyd, or Air Berlin IF the opportunity arises (nothing at the moment - and maybe no opportunities for awhile).

I have heard that Air Berlin offers very low wages/benefits - although it is growing with its Palma hub and it is replacing all Boeings with Airbus soon.

Does anyone out there have a perspective on these three carriers? If one was lucky enough to have offers from all three (however unlikely that might be), which should he choose and why? I have heard good things about LTU and Hapag Lloyd - are there any negatives to consider? Are any of these carriers likely to hire any time soon besides Air Berlin?

Cheers
