Good

Good flying (400-500 flying hours a year, 700-800 total including sims), good weather, good students, excellent management, a few company benefits, well maintained aircraft, good opportunities for career progression (multi, examiner, FIC etc). Spanish procedures can be a little daunting initially and the integrated course means some slick instructing, time keeping and flight management is required - it's not a retirement job so be prepared for some hard work! The paperwork, as with any integrated course, can be overwhelming if you don't keep up with it and the programming computers for the flying program leave a little to be desired. The money is ample for leading a good Spanish lifestyle. I rent a super house half an hour from the school in El Puerto de Santa Maria for 800 euros a month which is 50m from the beach and since I surf and love the sea I can't really ask for much more.

Go for it!

Cheers,
