Sorry richterscale10, but like DEFCON4, I would not apply for the job today as it is, and wouldn't recommend it to a friend unless it was for joining a big like BA or any other EU equivalent. But still the bigs are changing, and who knows what they will be in 10 years time?
I started from a charter airline and had to move up towards a big since the conditions were growing progressively worse after the first Gulf war. I had to move since for me it is a profession for life and not a summer job, and the t&d's they are proposing today are not bearable for a lifetime, or if you are planning to have a family, or resent being treated as a slave.
I am very happy where I'm now, but I couldn't grant any newcomer he would get what I'm having now in 10 years.
Quite not what you were expecting I'm afraid...
