I am with No Joy on this one all the way. You will also find if you dig into Bruce's posts, he is hyper aggressive towards his fellow AC employees. This in itself is one of the key reasons people leave Canada. According to mates in AC, the infighting between pilot groups is the single biggest threat to their terms and conditions. In fact they admit that management is riding the hostility all the way to the bank, further dividing the employees. Results?
1) A HR system that lacks any sensibility, especially for a company of its size.
2) A starting salary that is amongst the lowest of legacy carriers worldwide.
3) A work force that is losing its fight with management.
Now before anyone jumps down my throat, just look at the facts and try and understand why SOME people choose to leave. AC is still a very good gig but should be compared to the big US outfits, not the highly profitable carriers in Europe, Asia and the Middle East.
I love Canada and do enjoy going home, but I do not miss the BS that goes along with the industry. This thread only proves the point.
At the end of the day we all have it pretty good so lets all be friends.
