lets get back on topic here,enough bull****ting

Benefits=good roster,new planes,pay is ok nothing amazing,good TRE lads and training,nice capts+cabin crew

Bad= brookfield - sorting out your own affairs is a pain,
no pay on standbys,
pay fluctuates hugely every month,
annual leave for brookfielders is awful - pretty much sept-march,summer no chance
1 month leave in a block is tough on money+boring in winter
10 days additional leave is given even if not wanted
in 1 calender year(jan-dec) it is possible to only work 10 months or less as months off can be given in 2 different roster years (april-march),for example feb 08(still 07 roster year) off and oct 08(08 roster year) off=tough on cash

its ok overall,the flying is nice
