Been researching Abu Dhabi and Etihad ( and EK as well) for some time now. My initial (some may say naive) impression of EY is that the main concern for a new joiner is accomodation and education for their children. Fair point or not??
Once in it seems that the pilot workforce gripes are the same as other companies....same sh1t just a different coloured airframe.
Anyhow I've decided to go to the EY pilot roadshow over here in the UK to get the company perspective and then weigh this up against all your personal experiences. Has/will the housing situation improve? Rent to buy scheme...anybody in it? Is'nt life in AD acceptable? (Have read about rents and school fees but everything else seems better than Europe i.e food, cars petrol et al).
I would appreciate a non rosy specs viewpoint and if I'm talking out of my ar$e then let me know.
Happy for PM's
