Perhaps those lucky enough to be in a secure job at an airline should stop laughing at these cadet's misfortune and show a bit of unity.
Cadets can't stand up for themselves effectively because they are offered deals like this latest one individually and with hardly any time to make a decision and if they refuse it (and a lot of them did) CTC just go to the next one until they have enough people. If it had been offered with a weeks notice to everyone they could have got together and rejected it, but this was catered for in it's delivery to them.
The main culprit here is Easyjet management. CTC cadets are the unfortunate pawns. Easy's game plan is clearly to divide and rule their pilot workforce. They want more and more contractors with ****e ts and cs until the vast majority of their crew are like this with no rights and a million people behind them to take their place if they don't like it.
You pilot's with secure permanent contracts (hard earned or otherwise) attacking these cadets is exactly what easyjet want. You are catering to their plan nicely. You say these cadets are ruining your terms and conditions but it's management who are the architects of this as they know ctc cadets are between a rock and a hard place and can't refuse such deals (although many have actually refused this).
It would be far more effective to direct your energies to BALPA to try to combat this in whatever way possible, rather than having a go at these pawns in the easy management's game.
I think a strike against seasonal contractors would be a good start. Sounds extreme but management are not reasonable people. This would force easy to start offering more reasonable contracts. Only catch is the people with the power to strike are in secure employment, they're ok, so they're not going to: and that is exactly as management have planned it.
I'm sure we will see many more "innovative" schemes to further divide and rule the pilot workforce in the years to come.
All pilots should stand up to this now, together as best they can, instead of making scapegoats out of these unfortunate pawns.
