Netjet - The Truth

I used to work for Netjets and I have many mates who still do. This is the way it is:

You can live anywhere you like within an hour from a gateway.

You can change you gateway with ease allowing you to finish in GVA one week, LHR the next.

They pay you every month, always on time, always the right amount.

The flying is fun and interesting.

The hotels are pretty good and you get to eat some good crew food.

The people you fly with are great and the line trainers are doing the very best they can with limited support.

HOWEVER:

You will work hard. You will fly 3 to 4 legs a day, clean the cabin, clean the lav, sort out the catering, sort out the over wing refuelling in the rain, meet the passengers 30 mins before departure, load the bags, brief the passengers, fly the leg, off load the bags and escort the passengers to the limo.

You will have your Terms and Conditions changed without consultation.

You will not get any reward for hard work, no career progression unless you kiss the right ass.

You will get to fly the richest and most powerful people in the world and you get a below avarage salary.

You will be expected to 'go the extra mile' for the passengers with no comment from the company unless it goes wrong then you get a bollocking.

You will trained at Flight Safety...........say no more!

You get to operate in remote areas of the world with no compensation, thanks or recognition, just a bollocking if it goes wrong.

You get to meet lots of managers with no management training at all. When they fail to make the grade they are sacked and then get to fly a Gulfstream or Falcon 900.

You will see managers all flying the very best airplanes for 6 days every 2 months and wonder how come there is no chance you get a bigger aircraft.

You have the option to see MASSIVE amounts of money wasted on a new catering system that doesn't work and the 'consultant' who designed it didn't 'consult' with the crews.

You may get a chance to go to the beautiful London office costing millions but you have to fly from LHR to Witchita via Amsterdam and Denver to save $75.

You will have phone conversations with people you have never heard of from departments you have never heard of. They will be doing jobs with little worth.

You will fly the worlds greatest designers and in your uniform you look like an extra from a 1970's porn film.

You may be lucky enough to fly the small fleets, work the hardest in the worst conditions and then get paid the least. NO MANAGERS ARE ON THE NON APU FLEETS!! That tells a story!
