Penko,
Yes there is the loan to consider, but by leaving, to me, it is still worth it, becasue you are better off at many carriers by doing less flying, you get BUPA or simillar at £150 per month for a family, PHI and a free unifrom, better staff travel, a leave system that works, a senirority list so you can calculate when your time for command should in theory arrive and which base you will be at to plan your personal life.
There are many many people I fly with every day who are shagged, and I do not intend to be one - not at ezy, the rewards are not there.
If ezy was like a career as a trader in the city - Work kin hard, get paid kin well and then retire early, then fine. They way it is now = work kin hard, get paid not tooooo bad, retire on an unsustainable pension.
If the company want me to feel it is a great place to work and want me to feel proud to work for the company then they would do well to put me on the normal SFO salary and bond me for the remainding time of my TRSS loan.
THEY have made THEIR bed
