The Exodus Has Started
NEO,
I think the exodus has already started with some of your expat pilots already going back even to lousy companies like ADA (a pretty telling sign if even ADA is viewed as better than Bristow). Even your Nigerian pilots are leaving and with pay increasing in Australia it won't be too long before some of your Antipodeans think long and hard about going back there.
You're quite right, there are many more jobs now and better alternatives to Nigeria are opening up. You're also absolutely right that in all companies, the majority of employees are treated like mushrooms - is it any wonder that for most, company loyalty beyond the next paycheque is an obsolete concept?
