It's quite insulting to suggest that NATS ATCOs would be unable to cope outside of the supposed cushioned environment that is NATS.
It may have some good points but you would expect these working conditions from any decent employer for highly qualified staff. I have worked outside of the company and received many of the said benefits plus more than we currently do.
It is good but not the best by a long shot, the one very redeeming feature it has is the pension, if that goes then it doesn't start to look anything like as pretty.
