If you ask how reputable is a company you will have interesting answers, but not the always the truth. Make an experience: let' s take cathay pacific, one of the safest company using the biggest airliners. Ask how reputable it is on PPrune. You will have more negative answers than optimistic ones. So if you ask about a C208 company... You' d better go there and check it out. Anyway with the recession coming up, I don' t know if we will have much choice concerning the employment opportunities...
