AKA "Global Joke" by company aircrew

Amateurs with a capital A.
Classic case where operation has exanded too fast - inexperianced small aircraft management playing with "big boy toys".
Contract appears attractive but weighed in company favour.
Poor rostoring with constant changes. In principle 2 weeks on / 2 weeks off but always longer on duty (vacation & training also deducted from days off).
Account department a mess with late payment of monthly salaries & personal expense claims.
Generally disorganised.
Poor hotels, although management have had to back track somewhat on earlier decisions.
All Russian clients - French run.
French nationals pay minimal income tax on Luxembourg contract (favourable double taxation agreement - grey area!?), other nationalities very high tax.
Hire & fire mentality hence the lack of feedback.
